Status of attribution guidelines, next steps

The Licensing Working Group (LWG) had created a draft attribution guideline , which was subsequently modified by the board. After meetings of the board with Corporate Member representatives on attribution (Jun and Oct 2020) and with LWG members (Oct 2020), the board version was modified. There was subsequently a Board and LWG meeting in October 2020, leading to further modifications to the board's draft. December meeting decision to: Publish the current document after giving the Licensing Working Group (LWG) a heads up tonight. Ask LWG to summarise the points they still consider open from the comments on that document and ask Dermot McNally (LWG member), who has no conflict of interest, to present that report at the next LWG meeting. (# Dermot has been asked and agreed to do it). Rory to work with external counsel to try to find the solutions to these issues that are most favourable to us.
