Yeah, sorry though it would include the old thread :)

http://bugs.musicbrainz.org/ticket/3558
http://wiki.musicbrainz.org/Gecks/FeaturingArtistStyleAmendment

my amendment is
- clarifying what we mean by 'featuring' which i think is current
practice, and pretty much implied via the word "featuring" but in any
case, it seems useful to get it down in writing.
- gets rid of the collaboration guidelines which are in the wrong
place anyway. if someone is 'featured' their contribution (equal to,
greater than or less than the main artist) is irrelevant.
- simplifying the thing as i don't think the SG5 stuff is current any
more, and is available elsewhere should history interest you :)
- shows that featuring artists can be context sensitive (now includes
real world example)

i am not interested in:
- getting rid of FeaturingArtistStyle. as i said in the ticket: "IMO
featuring artist style was created to solve the lack of ARs, but
stayed post-AR to support featuring artist credits". it's here so we
might as well make best use of it.
- how this does/does not apply to the CSG. i think all CSG 'overrides'
should be in the CSG docs rather than dotted around the normal ones,
and in any case, that part's for the classical gurus to work out :)
(after discussion i reintroduced the bit that mentions CSG in the old
guideline, but it's for someone else to embellish on that if need be)
