I'm forwarding some important information received from the Museums Copyright Group in the UK.

One of the biggest tasks we're undertaking at the moment is boosting the number of visual artists' entries on the WATCH file (see http://tyler.hrc.utexas.edu/). In the past few weeks, hundreds of new names have been added [800 NPG artists], making this an increasingly useful source for users trying to track down rightholders. We've just got DACS to agree to supply us with all their artists' names, so that'll increase numbers further! We may be asking other organisations to join the initiative...
