Hi Bill,
Welcome to the list! I hope you will find the discussions helpful.
There should be plenty of forthcoming class notes for you to read and
don't hesitate to ask for clarification if you don't understand
something.

Thanks for the suggestion, I'm sure Ven. Pandita knows a thing or two
about the book situation in Myanmar. I think for my initial enquiry
I'd probably go to myanmarbook.com which seems to be based in Myanmar
as they say that they will photocopy manuscripts and rare books for
you. I was just at the site and I don't think their online search tool
will help much. You'd have to send them an email. Please let me know
if you have luck with your other resource.
Best wishes,
Jim
