Jeff, Thanks for that clarification. I have two questions if you have the time to answer them
Of the total number of Associate Editors, how many "yes" votes does it take for a provisional meteorite to get accepted?
Does the Editor have veto power?
Best, John Gwilliam

1) A new meteorite is characterized in the laboratory
2) The information is submitted to the Nomenclature Committee, usually to one of the Associate Editors (AEs), but sometimes directly to the Editor.
3) The AE acknowledges receipt of the information and tells you that all is in order.
4) The AE transfers the information to the Editor of the Bulletin.
5) The Editor assembles information on all meteorites sent in by the AEs and sends it to the entire NomCom for a vote.
6) The Editor receives the votes and decides if each meteorite has been approved. The appropriate AE is informed of the decision.
7) The AE tells you either (a) the name is approved or (b) the name did not pass.
8) For approved meteorites, the text or information you submitted is eventually edited for publication. You may get an advance copy of this text, but sometimes not. A provisional Bulletin may appear on the web. All text at this stage is subject to further revision.
9) The Bulletin is submitted to MAPS for publication. At this point, all entries are final and can be quoted directly, without qualification.
Your meteorites are at step (4). They have not been approved OR sent out for a vote. The AE has simply accepted your submission and sent it to the Editor. Therefore, you cannot say that the text you quote is approved by the NomCom, nor can you say it will appear in the Bulletin. That depends on passing step (7). All you can say is that your text has been submitted to the Bulletin.
