Following up Reuben Swanson's work

4
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.

  3. 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).

  4. 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.
