A pleasure meeting you all at LWG this evening.

I saw Brexit in the minutes for September
"At the end of year we won't be losing database rights immediately."

General guidance I've seen appears to say:
- database rights accrued before 2021-01-01 persist (as I've seen discussed in minutes) - database rights accrued from 2021-01-01 will exist only in the UK (if at all: I can't see any enabling legislation after a quick look, and this may have gone into the Govt's "later" tray - so copyright may be the only protection).

The last point suggests to me that any edits made after 2020-01-01 will have less protection than so far has been the case.

Is that your understanding? Or is the database as a whole protected because the architecture has been built, and subsequent edits are protected modifications of an already-protected creation?
