Dear Jim,

Regarding the authorship and time of Vijitavin, I came to think of the
introductory stanzas where he refers to Suttaniddesa as one of his main
sources. Since Suttaniddesa which according to the colophon was composed by
Chapada at the ten times 99th and one thousandth year af the Buddha's
nibbana, i.e. 1447 C.E., the colophon of Kacc-va.n.n makes perfect sense: It
is a fairly late commentary.


Best wishes,

Ole Pind
