Default Awesome new section - some suggestions

Hey all! Glad to see the formation of this new section - really cool and exciting. Some questions and suggestions:
  • Angraecum is misspelled, as is alliance!
  • Could we perhaps change the title of this board to 'Vanda alliance - Angraecoids' instead of angraecum/aerangis?
  • Would it be possible to transfer existing Angraecoid threads to this area?

Thanks mods

I was just going to look at transfering some posts when I spotted this new section just now.

I think the name is as Tindo requested from Marty (except the spellings). We need to ask Marty to change the spellings I think.

well, if we're going to ask him to correct spelling, can we ask him to update the descriptions for the forums?

Coelogyne Alliance: change Pholidot to Pholidota

Cymbidium Alliance: change Cyrotpdium to Cyrtopodium

Dendrobium Alliance: change Epigenium to Epigeneium

Pleurothallis Alliance: remove Sarcochilus, change Stellus to Stelis

Vanda alliance - others: add Sarcochilus, remove Aerangis, remove Angraecum, change Euanthea to Euanthe, change Lewisia to Luisia

Thanks Rosie - I only bring this up because the description of the section reads Aerangidinae and Angraecinae, which are two huge vanda subtribes that include multiple genera, and yet the title of the section implies that only Aerangis and Angraecum are to be included here. No biggie, but it's somewhat misleading.
