Dear Ashutosh,

it will take a very good argument for me to start acting like a policeman.
The white paper authors are grown-ups, and can follow the rules they subscribed to,
and I have no business trying to restrict their creativity. That's the job of their collaborations.

cheers,
-y

Of course these proceedings are not on behalf of ATLAS but in any case it seems good to indicate clearly that these are proceedings to distinguish them from a review article.
>> 3. If preliminary results have to be used say "with contributions from the ATLAS collaboration" at the end of the author list. (We are not sure about how CMS wants to handle this)
>> 
>> Could you please make sure that these suggestions are implemented for all articles that contain preliminary ATLAS results? If this is controversial please feel free to get back to me so we can try to work out a different compromise that complies with the ATLAS rules.
