Regarding the book Kaarikaa by Dhammasenaapati, Bode writes (1909)
"This modest little metrical treatise has lived bravely through some
eight centuries and was last republished a few years ago." (_The Pali
Literature of Burma_). That would be a few years previous to 1909.
Sorry I don't have anything more up to date, but at least it's been
printed. Hope this helps,
