Dear Robert,
You may not be aware that TDWG has a list devoted to taxonomic literature
standards. It would be great if you (and anyone else interested) would join
in that discussion ( TDWG Literature standards mailing list
tdwg-lit at lists.tdwg.org; sign up at
http://lists.tdwg.org/mailman/listinfo/tdwg-lit_lists.tdwg.org/general ) and
add your expertise. The list has only been active since early February, and
the complete correspondence is in the archives (
http://lists.tdwg.org/pipermail/tdwg-lit_lists.tdwg.org/ ).

Dear all,
Below is a short 'survey' which hopefully can help to get an overview
on how bibliographic information currently is stored in your databases.
If you don't like to fill such forms, any other info on your current
literature db is also welcome, just send it to me by email!
The list maybe incomplete, if you think important questions are missing
there just let me and the others know.
I will try to sumarize the results on the wiki later.
best regards, Robert
