Hi Mike,
I see from the Brill site that there is a new version (Jan 2017) of Paul Kroll's "A Student's Dictionary of Classical and Medieval Chinese". Per the site; Baxter has updated some of the MC readings, and there are several new contributors to the new version. Also, I understand from elsewhere that the dictionary itself has undergone significant updates. What are you considering for Pleco at present, if anything?

Thanks!!

Have to discuss that one with my counterpart at Brill - didn't know this was finished yet. Thanks.

EDIT: it's not entirely clear if this has anything beyond the content in Baxter's earlier list of pronunciation corrections - if that's all then I don't imagine it'll be a major problem to add those.
EDIT 2: seems like per http://www.colorado.edu/alc/2017/01/20/paul-kroll-authors-revised-edition-award-winning-dictionary this does indeed have a few changes aside from those so we'll see about getting them in our copy. (IIRC that's in the license agreement but I have to double check)

Hi Mike,
Have you had a chance to check on whether you will be able to update SDCMC with the ~200 alterations/additions per your license agreement with Brill, and if so, when you will have a chance to update your (our :) )version? Thanks as always!
