LDR.2:5.3 - Joint work without a common employer

Suppose three independent researchers agree to publish a comparison. One offers a dataset, one analysis and one review. The analyst’s promised date precedes the dataset’s permitted release. No participant can assign another’s time.

They examine an earlier anonymized subset, a later analysis and independent preparatory work. The data owner determines which sharing permission actually exists; the analyst assesses whether the subset answers the research question. If it does, each participant accepts the revised scope and date. If it does not, the group retains useful independent preparation and defers the unsupported joint result. A new office would supply neither the missing permission nor the dataset.
