Highlights
For 250 years, taxonomists have relied on having access to physical copies of published works in order to verify information about taxa
Even when the fourth edition of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature (ICZN 1999) was published, it was clear that electronic publication could not be ignored (Ride 1999, 2003)
A summary of the draft amendment was presented at the International Congress of Zoology (ICZ) on August 27, during the Systema Naturae 250 symposium
