I'm running for election to the Council of the Society and to the Commission on 
Phylogenetic Nomenclature, and hereby promise to do something about that if 
elected. I haven't been kept in the loop either since my last possible 
consecutive term on the CPN ended a few years ago; I was sent version 6 only as 
a response to a question I sent to an old list of society members.

Join the society at phylonames.org.

The changes aren't that large, though; electronic publication is by far the 
most important.

And yes, Phylonyms and the Code are expected to come out very soon.
