As of 5.10, SWORD API no longer accepts NONE for dcterms:license

[pdurbin]

What steps does it take to reproduce the issue?

• Download atom-entry-study.xml from https://guides.dataverse.org/en/5.10/api/sword.html#create-a-dataset-with-an-atom-entry
• Try to create a dataset using the curl command from the URL above.
• Observe that dataset cannot be created.

Here is the error:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<sword:error xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom" href="Couldn't find an active license with: NONE" xmlns:sword="http://purl.org/net/sword/terms/">
  <title>ERROR</title>
  <updated>2022-03-29T19:00:40Z</updated>
  <generator uri="http://www.swordapp.org/" version="2.0"/>
  <summary>Couldn't find an active license with: NONE</summary>
  <sword:treatment>Processing failed</sword:treatment>
</sword:error>

What did you expect to happen?

I expect the dataset to be created.

To be honest, I'm not sure what I expect the dataset to have as a license when I specify NONE. We should probably check what happens in Dataverse 5.9.

At the very least, the XML example in the API Guide should work.

It's possible that SWORD-based integrations like OJS and OSF are broken.

Which version of Dataverse are you using?

5.10
