[Taxacom] Botanical descriptions and ICBN

[Paul van Rijckevorsel]

Yes, Latin or English, starting 1 January 2012.

The pre-prints of the relevant papers in Taxon have been online for
over a week by now, such as
http://www.ingentaconnect.com/content/iapt/tax/pre-prints/12084
http://www.ingentaconnect.com/content/iapt/tax/pre-prints/12068
http://www.ingentaconnect.com/content/iapt/tax/pre-prints/12085
I suppose the October issue, which will contain the definite version
of these papers won't be long now.

Paul

PS. The new title is
"International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants"
not "... for the Nomenclature", not "... of algae, ..." and with a comma
after fungi. This will take practice, especially the comma!
