In the case I mentioned this morning, I withdrew the name and
simply went back to the parentage because I registered the parent but
never introduced it.
I wonder how Keith keeps track of all of this. Does he have a
program that alerts him when non-registered irises show up in parentages
or does he just 'visually' check each parent before issuing the
registration certificate?
Seems to me some parentages on older irises are suspect without
modern technology to catch non-introduced irises.
