Unfortunately I have less time than expected and probably can't read the proposed modifications this week. So just one thing now: Gesendet: Dienstag, 12. November 2013 um 17:25 Uhr Von: "Graham, Sean" < swgraham at mail.ubc.ca > An: "James Doyle" < jadoyle at ucdavis.edu >, "Committee on Phylogenetic Nomenclature" < cpn at listserv.ohio.edu > Betreff: Re: [CPN] additions to proposed modifications > I suggest we avoid the wordy “his or her” throughout the document and use the single-person neutral “their”, which seems to be where English is heading in terms of useage. I agree; what's more, in most of these cases we can simply talk about plural authors and keep everyone happy. Fewer and fewer papers are authored by a single person these days.
