Kew has lot of free ideas. When a new boss comes, he or she wants to do something new, discarding the old one. They have literally stopped The Plant List. Soon they may stop the website too. The Kew Checklist on the other hand is still working as it is handled by R. Govaerts. So till the new director comes and gives another new idea? We are bound to use Plants of the World.
