Yes, it is at https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Draft_Attribution_Guideline/2020v2

Also, see history and introduction - it is a significant rewrite but it is not written from scratch
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Draft_Attribution_Guideline/2020v2&action=history

The most important part is a success - claim that ODBL attribution requirements (noticeable by all)
are waived on mobile is now gone.

It is still problematic in parts (for example it would allow permanent logo of hosting company
while OSM attribution would disappear quickly) but it is a significant improvement over
previous version.
