Following up Reuben Swanson's work

The post about distribution and obtaining Reuben Swanson's extremely useful NTGM raises a separate question:
Who is continuing his work and what is the time schedule proposed?

It would be wonderful if those books had generated enough revenue to fund the ongoing project. Does anyone know how the project stands? Several on this list are connected to grad students and institutions that might be able to lend a hand.

I was under the impression that Kent Clarke would be taking over the work:

I've heard the same things as Brent from several people.

I also thought that but I am not sure. The webpage indicates that he is definitely supervisor of Swanson's collection of material (microfilms, facsimiles, etc).

I corresponded with Kent and he said that no definite plans are in place while the family is grieving. It will be some time before anything is decided.

The membership of this blog is made up of evangelicals involved in academic study of textual criticism. Those with appropriate expertise and theological convictions who wish to be considered for membership should contact Peter Head or Tommy Wasserman. Those applying for membership must indicate that they have read either the OT or the NT in its original language(s), should be actively involved in text-critical research, and should be already contributing to the blog through comments. They should give e-mail details of an academic and a pastoral referee, a summary of their academic and/or ministry involvement, a statement of their doctrinal commitment (which may be by reference to various classic evangelical statements of faith, e.g. 39 Articles, Westminster Confession), and an indication of their area of interest within textual criticism. Non-members who wish to comment are not expected to be evangelical, but they are requested to respect the blog's ethos.
