Dear Ole

Can you point me out the exact reference of the Journal which includes your
article on Pali Grammar? From Eisel's observations, I come to understand
that you are claiming Kacc is the work of many hands. So I feel interested
very much.
In fact, it has been a long-held notion in Burma. There is even a Pali verse
naming the separate authors of Sutta, Vutti, and Udaahara.na (examples)
respectively. (I have tried to find it again in the Burmese sources I have
but I haven't succeeded on such a short-notice) However, some later Burmese
scholars like Janakaabhiva.msa maintain that Vutti and Udaahara.na must come
from the same hand. (Janakaabhiva.msa is the original author of "Abhidhamma
in Daily Life", translated into English by U Ko Lay)
