[CPN] Ratification of the PhyloCode

[Cantino, Philip]

Dear CPN members,

Today is the target date I suggested to start a vote to ratify the code.  I initially sent it to you on Dec. 17, and I sent a revised version on January 8 that differed only in the addition of the Preface and revisions of Art. 11.9 and Appendix A.  There was a delay of a couple of days in that second email because the file was too large.  Hopefully, though, you all received it by January 11.  Dick Olmstead sent me a couple of small changes in the Preface, but other than that, I haven’t heard from any of you.

How do you want to proceed?  Do you feel ready to vote now or do you want more time to read it?  Bear in mind that you or previous CPN memberships approved everything that is in the code other than the current versions of the Preface and Appendix A.  However, within reason, I would like the vote to wait until everyone who wants to read the code carefully has time to do so.

If you do NOT want me to call for a vote soon (let’s say next Monday), please respond to this message and suggest a date that would be realistic for you.  I will interpret a lack of response to mean agreement that I can call for a vote on Monday.

Best regards,
Phil
