Hello everybody,
Section 3(a)(1)(A) of CC-by-sa-v4.0draft2 states:

[...]
>          (A) identify the author(s) of the Work as well as other
>          parties designated by Licensor to receive attribution in the
>          manner designated by Licensor,
[...]

This clause may pose problems with anonymous or pseudonymous works.
I think that the clause should explicitly mention the possibility that
the author is to be "identified" through a pseudonym or through the
word "anonymous".

Maybe the clause could say:

| (A) identify the name or the pseudonym of the author(s) of the
| Work, when supplied, as well as other parties designated by
| Licensor to receive attribution in the manner designated by
| Licensor,

I hope this suggestion may be implemented in the next draft.

N.B.: please note that this is a regression with respect to draft1.
