Hi.

In the generic BY-SA license, there is section in clause 4a that allows a contributor to demand the removal of their name from derivative work.

http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.5/legalcode
"4. [...] a. [...] If You create a Collective Work, upon notice from any Licensor You must, to the extent practicable, remove from the Collective Work any credit as required by clause 4(c), as requested. If You create a Derivative Work, upon notice from any Licensor You must, to the extent practicable, remove from the Derivative Work any credit as required by clause 4(c), as requested."

There does not seem to be an equivalent section in the England & Wales 2.5 BY-SA .

I assume it would be in the "You must:" section. Should this be in the licence? Its absence seems to be a deviation from the original.

- Rob.
