No, the first line was a message to you to pay attention to the attribute 'opf:role="com"' in the subsequent line; it is a DC element refinement of the "creator" element and stands for "compiler". The element refinements are correctly managed by sigil into his metadata editor, as you can see into the image: Click image for larger version

No, as I said the attribute is not 'opf:role="aut"' but 'opf:role="com"'.

From the Dublin Core Metadata Elements set

Code:
Term Name: rights
URI: 	http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/rights
Label: 	Rights
Definition: 	Information about rights held in and over the resource.
Comment: 	Typically, rights information includes a statement about various property rights associated with the resource, including intellectual property rights.

The meta tag appears to be specifying the version of the tool that created the epub.
Sometimes one wants to edit that data by hand. The Sigil metadata editor gives this opportunity.
