Articles from the *Proceedings of the International Congress of Mathematicians*, Seoul, 2014 don't appear to be on Mathscinet. Why is this?


(Someone pointed this out to me recently, and I was reminded of it today when I tried to cite a lecture.)



Why aren't proceedings from ICM 2014 on mathscinet?
We have had difficulty obtaining the requisite permissions from the publisher. The ICM2014 website has the Legal Disclaimer: "The Seoul ICM Organizing Committee, the legal copyright owner of the articles in the proceedings, hearby grants unlimited noncommercial download and use of the articles." This is not sufficient for our purposes. The most recent communication with them was this week. (Note: I'm the person @DanRamras wrote to.)


**Update (2018.02.22).** We have now received permission from the publisher, as well as physical copies of the proceedings. The papers are now in the database and available in MathSciNet. Further processing (such as reviews) is still to come. See [ICM2014, Volume I](https://mathscinet.ams.org/mathscinet-getitem?mr=3727146), [ICM2014, Volume II](https://mathscinet.ams.org/mathscinet-getitem?mr=3727147), [ICM2014, Volume III](https://mathscinet.ams.org/mathscinet-getitem?mr=3727148), and [ICM2014, Volume IV](https://mathscinet.ams.org/mathscinet-getitem?mr=3727149).
