Pali Inscriptions on Marble, 5th council

The "Marble slab edition" of the Tipitaka is well publicized, but, it
seems, not very well published.  Jim alerted me to this project to
digitize all 729 inscriptions and keem them "in print".

I would assume that there would be considerable historical
significance in any editorial decisions made (or errors that might be
found) in this most direct recension of the 5th council text --and
even the "typography" is of some interest to me, as it seems to mark
the last major achievement of pre-modern book-making in the Burmese
tradition.  In the one (& only) close-up photograph provided by this
website, I notice some features of the script that I do not see in
print today (nor recognise from samples of MS / handwriting).
