The old adage comes to mind: "If it ain't broke, don't try to fix it."

This press release contains links to the online version of the International 
Code of Phylogenetic Nomenclature, its book version, the book version of 
Phylonyms, and to the beta version of RegNum, the registration database for 
established names and definitions. In other words, regulated phylogenetic 
nomenclature is now up and running.


I recommend that everyone interested in publishing a name or definition read 
the entire Code â at 22 chapters or (in paper format) 149 pages, it is much 
shorter than the rank-based codes and frankly much more readable. But read the 
press release first. :-)
