Set dcterms:contributor to the user's username

Is that what the field is used for? Should it be the username? If so, we can always set it.

contributor and creator should have the same form but have different meanings. You could always argue that a creator is also a contributor. But I find adding the user twice odd. And adding the username instead of the real name would be very uncommon.

Mh okay, so we will just not do this? I'd be fine with just closing this issue.

[lkiesow]

What was your intention in proposing this?

[LukasKalbertodt]

I'm not quite sure anymore :D I think I just thought "maybe this field is intended to hold the username". But yeah, it is not, so let's close this.
