Are these things available online somewhere? URLs? What's the ASC model? Steve Richard Pyle wrote:
early documents that go into a lot of this in great detail. One is Stan Blum's description of the ASC model. Another are a series of publications from Walter Berendsohn on "potential taxa". A lot of other stuff is floating around the Specify project, and there are some other earlier sources. But I agree, it's not easy to find, and it doesn't always cover the details we need it to in today's context.
