> I am attaching a third revision of the proposed changes in Art. 21. 
> The two new changes, which were suggested by Jim Doyle, are 
> highlighted in green. 
>  
> I think the only remaining disagreement concerns Note 21A.1 and its 
> Example 1.  The proposed wording discourages changing the ending of 
> a uninomen to agree in gender or number with a clade name it is 
> combined with if that clade name is not also the name of a genus 
> under the appropriate rank-based code.  (Although David M. says that 
> the proposed wording "forbids" changing the ending of a uninomen in 
> this situation, the Note reads more like a recommendation.) 
>  
> I am going to call for a vote now, although if anyone feels that 
> more discussion is needed, please say so. 
>  
> I am asking that everyone vote on two questions: 
> 1) Do you approve the proposed changes to Art. 21, without 
> consideration of Note 21A.1 and its Example 1? 
Yes

> 2) Do you approve of the proposed wording of Note 21A.1 and its Example 1? 
Yes
