Such an organisation is long overdue, much-needed, although I would wait
for the further emendations and other activities of the PhyloCode. It is my
feeling that, while having outlived its usefulness (much like some "on-line"
dinosaur chat groups which have become circus tents), the ISZN should be
maintained until that time, then it should be abolished by ignoring it. (The
ISZN's revisions of Iguanodon, e.g., are nothing short of ludicrous, and a
reflection of why phylogenetic systematics is the solution for converting
clade names.)
