Dear Monomuni,

Does BPS sell the Hewavitarne edition ?
20 US dollar/volume?
That sounds incredible. I remember the Hewavitarne edition to be very
valuable, especially because you sometimes find readings which are not
reported anywhere else. In many an old sinhalese temple those 19th
century -Hewavitarne books are dying a solitary death...
Its a great work, if anyone seeks to keep them alive...

mettaya,

Lennart

ps: you have some more details on this project?
