to continue the circular definitions ... you are right and wrong
You are right that Cus xus (1900) 2001 is a later homonym but you are wrong that it cannot be validly published, for validly published it possibly is if it complies with the Code wrt the requirements for valid publication, but illegitimate it certainly is ;-)

As a botanist I agree with Rich's statements about the differences, how
it is
not really difficult to reconciple them, and I think both systems make
sense to
me.
One thing I guess I forgot is how is two authors recombine names with
homonymic
epithets into a third genus, priority is established in botany and
zoology.
1900: Aus xus published
1901: Bus xus published
2000: Bus xus recombined to Cus xus (1901) 2000
2001: Aus xus recombined to Cus xus (1900) 2001
Which homony of Cus xus has priority - based on publication or protonym
or on
date of recomination? ICBN 58.2 suggests to me it is the first
combination,
because Cus xus (1900) 2001 would be a later homonym combination that
cannot be
validly published? Is that true (Paul?)
---
By the way, something I believe not in the model at all: Names may have
equal
priority. In ICBN a "selection priority" may resolve this, see ICBN
11.5. Good
short example: "When Dentaria L. (1753) and Cardamine L. (1753) are
united, the
resulting genus is called Cardamine because that name was chosen by
Crantz, who
first united them. This is similar to lecotypification, but needs to be
modeled
differently. It is a nomenenclatural act to be recorded. Not sure it has
to be
in the model as structure, but I believe the model needs to give advice
how to
handle it if it should just go into commentary.
---
"Nasty" aside: who is putting all this on the wiki by the way? And I
don't mean
Rich should do it, is doing more than enough. But I can't either. Wikis
really
are about collaborating and sharing the workload...
