Taxacom: Dates of e-pubs ahead of print?

I suspect that many smaller journals are not aware of the problem. I 
recently published a paper in a journal that had recently become online 
only but they thought they still met the requirements of the code by 
printing 2 copies, one of which was sent to the editor. I had to pester 
the production staff (operated by "E...r") and editor over a period of 
weeks to get them to republish the paper again with Zoobank registration 
and the actual date of publishing online. This was messy and should not 
happen.
