Rules for approval of new KLOE results presentation/publication

Updated on December 6th, 2004 : see rule #10

- before being presented to an external conference/workshop/seminar a physics analysis must be presented and discussed in the proper Working Group (WG) and in the analysis meetings and then finally approved at a general KLoe meeting (in case of time urgency the approval could be given at an analysis meeting).

- one week before the approval meeting the authors should make publicly available a KLOE memo on their analysis. This memo is intended for internal use only and should contain enough details on procedures, systematics etc. to allow a critical evaluation.

- if a written contribution is required by the conference/workshop the authors should extract from the memo a conference note.

- conference notes, proceedings contributions, official papers should be critically reviewed and approved by an editorial board (EB)(*)

- the editorial board, for help, can appoint referees (i.e. KLoe members expert on the subject); however the final responsibility for approval remains in the EB itself.

(*) membership of the EB could be discussed and decided at the Exec in Naples.
