For the workshop: Please make use of the Darwin Core data converter at GBIF to create and store Darwin Core archives. See ChecklistFormat, especially the best practices, for details if you want to create them yourself, the simplest form being a CSV file with a header row specifying the dwc term. You can upload zipped tab delimited files up to 100MB to the converter for processing. If you need a manager account, please inform Markus or Tim.

Index Fungorum (nomenclator) and Species Fungorum (taxonomy) are two different things.
(2) ERMS is contained within WoRMS. For the merging WoRMS would suffice since we don't require the regional context that would warrant a second ERMS.
