[open-science] query regarding language in permission to mine

Thu Jul 19 14:37:07 UTC 2012

This is the draft of a clause that would waive attribution when mining.  

Do any of you have any thoughts on whether this language is reasonable for the purpose?  Is attribution stacking a problem that truly needs to be addressed?

I am a bit concerned that it leaves a possible loophole allowing the miner to intentionally omit any identifiable characteristics simply to avoid attribution.  Is that an inescapable problem?

Any advice would be appreciated.
