Re: [Aroid-l] Cultivar registration - the wraps are off

From: "Marek Argent" <abri1973 at wp.pl> on 2008.11.22 at 14:59:59   Hello,   And it's time to tell everybody that cultivar names can consist only of letters from the Latin alphabet. So we say goodbye to names with ěř=FD=E1=ED=E9=F6=E4=FC=E5ąśćę=F3ń etc. We'll "flatten" these letters to abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz.   Best, Marek   ----- Original Message ----- From: derek burch To: 'Discussion of aroids' Sent: Saturday, November 22, 2008 3:02 AM Subject: [Aroid-l] Cultivar registration - the wraps are off     Greetings,   It is time to get moving on this. Our application for has been approved by the International Cultivar Registration Authority, and now we have to perform.   Cultivar registration in a few words.   WHY: I want to see it happen so that cultivar names are a matter of record (and also eventually get tied to a reference site available to all, with descriptions and images.   WHEN: The time to start is now =96 RIGHT NOW   WHERE:  There is a great, simple form to apply for registration of a name on Aroid-l in the cultivar section   WHAT:   Any plant that seems significantly different and holds the difference when propagated vegetatively   HOW:  The cultivar name, or epithet, is submitted on the application for registration. It must be in a non-latinised form, and must sooner or later be published in print form associated with a description and preferably an image. The epithet is then established by this publication. If the application is approved, but the epithet has not otherwise been established, the publication requirement will be met by a suitable entry in Aroideana.  Registration will then follow and lists of registered names will be published in hard-copy from time to time, and will also be displayed on the website.  Simple, right?   WHO: You, of course. This is only effective if the breeders and propagators support it.   Right now, I need help from volunteers familiar with a genus who can check the lists already available on Aroid-l, add any missing names, and give me the place and date of publication of any names that you can trace.   We are ready to go. Please be part of this.   Derek   __________ NOD32 Informacje 3632 (20081121) __________ Wiadomosc zostala sprawdzona przez System Antywirusowy NOD32 http://www.nod32.com lub http://www.nod32.pl _______________________________________________ Aroid-L mailing list Aroid-L@www.gizmoworks.com http://www.gizmoworks.com/mailman/listinfo/aroid-l __________ NOD32 Informacje 3632 (20081121) __________ Wiadomosc zostala sprawdzona przez System Antywirusowy NOD32 http://www.nod32.com lub http://www.nod32.pl ------=_NextPart_000_02F7_01C94CBB.5F9F71D0----===============2317565035500827897==
