Quotes from the Policy(http://www.ligo.caltech.edu/LIGO_web/lsc/pubpol7.pdf)
(from section 1, Introduction)
The intent of the policy is to apply to the collaborative work of the LSC carried out in the LSC committees and working groups. Work originating in the individual groups of the Collaboration, not part of the collaborative program, is not subject to the policy. The policy applies to scientific articles, presentations at conferences, press releases and other popularizations.

Implementation to date
For written papers, we have applied the Publication and Presentations Policy to papers on LIGO/LSC technology -- it does not apply only to observations.
The review process has worked well.» Delays have not been long.
» Reviews add value to papers.
We have not yet applied the Policy to contributed talks at meetings, but we should. First observations are not far off, and we will certainly need to review them.

Proposal: All talks covered, observational talks carefully
All presentations which come out of LSC work be put into the LSC system» PDF version submitted to, maintained, and available on LIGO web
site IN ADVANCE OF THE PRESENTATION (next page…)» Issued a LIGO DCC (document control center) number» Database using LSC keywords – working groups, etc. – for easy
searching, browsing, on LSC web site
Review by Presentations Committee» Pointer sent simultaneously to Presentations Committee» Is this “observation”, or in need of review by the Spokesperson for
whatever reason? If so,» More stringent procedure of Policy takes force» Otherwise, done!

Last Minute Presentations?
We all now make the transparencies ‘on the plane’» Or in the hotel room, or on the laptop during the previous talk
Fine for most talks Not Possible for talks with results of observations. How to accommodate? With flexibility where possible When contacting a conference to request a talk (or when
accepting an invitation), let the Presentations Committee know» Authors, title, abstract
Some version of the talk has to get to the committee in advance: outline, draft, email text, pre-print of paper covering material. Propose: 7 days minimum advance
If something contentious, pass on to Spokesperson (cc Author)

Talks with results of observations
If there is material needing the Spokesperson’s attention, you know it; this requires much more advance notice.
Propose: 14 days minimum advance notice Clearly, if insufficient time is given for review, the
presentation may not be approved (or delivered)
