Up to now there has not been any official guidance on how to comply

category (for example, the API and the planet dump) which sets a
bad example for others.
At the very least we should be providing advice and guidance on how
users of the data can comply with the attribution requirement when
they publish OSM data.
I'd like to propose that we make the following statement:
"If you publish OpenStreetMap data you can satisfy the attribution
requirement of the license by linking to or referencing
<http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Attribution>http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Attribution";
Discuss.
Excellent. Simple therefore workable.
I echo Tom's sentiment that www.openstreetmap.org/Attribution would
be a cleaner public link to present if possible.
Frederick's comment answered separately.
