I see what you mean, I'm not disagreeing with you. I just think the solution is an ethical one. For me it not an issue of fudging a resume or footnotes/endnotes. So, as I have always done on my resume and applications, is to put a dateless "accepted for publication" on an hardcopy article or book or whatever, knowing that only God knows when the piece will actually come out. I've had a book stay in limbo after acceptance for three years. As for online dating--of publications--, my recent book came out simultaneously both in hardcopy and e-copy, but it's only listed on my resume once. Usually, I will list a publication when it first comes out, hard or e-copy. I will also say for a hard copy or an e-copy, in parentheses, that the piece is or will be available in another form. This serves two purposes. First, it's a matter of price: hardcopy is $25; e-copy on Kindle, Ibook, Kobu, Smashwords, Nook is $7. Second, scope of accessibility. So, I've had orders on my e-book version from India, Australia, even China, that I wouldn't have had in hardcopy.
