How I use : 1.) Load the Greek, covering the English with my hand. 2.) Reveal the English and check my work. 3.) Click on individual words (each one is a hyperlink even though they’re not underlined) to launch the word study tool to help me through rough spots.

Thank you! We don’t know this information unless we’re told by the giver so we never have the chance to personally thank supporters for their generosity. Also, feel free to give our stuff away! If it’s open source (all but a handful of texts are) it’s there to be shared.

Lest you think I’m just giving your stuff away - I donate to you guys annually. Just don’t forget to call and hit me up each fund drive :)

Yes, it layers on top of citable URNs very nicely (esp. taking all nodes to be citable URNs). The key to allowing "splits", though, is that if a scholar wants to distinguish A and B and LSJ conflates them, we map the URN for the LSJ conflation to the set {URN for A, URN for B}

Elements of textual criticism of manuscripts surface even when dealing with digitisation of printed books. On a current project, I can tell which electronic texts were manually keyed (from haplography) versus OCR'd and, in the OCR cases, can tell which image scan they used.

Paging - Could Recogito be of use for producing digital editions and/or commentaries? We're keen to hear from you.

1/ IMO there's potential in disaggregating Recogito, i.e. wrangling out code libraries for reuse. Any demand? E.g. add annotated text to your own Website? Any Recogito functionality that would help in building digital editions? What platforms do you use & would like see extended?

new paper on "Individual Developments and Systematic Change in Philology": goo.gl/cGJfo9, includes shout outs for CHS commentaries, and Archimedes Digital, , Venetus A, and Furman. The world really is changing, and, in at least some ways, for the better.

provide your data via an API that is queryable via CTS URN and I can show you how to add support for it in the Scaife Viewer like we did for the commentary server...

Beginning of an era -- @DHUniLeipzig + @PerseusDigLib /Scaife CTS Viewer now talks to the @HellenicStudies CTS commentary service. Its a first step and not smooth but goo.gl/uGT1gg -- scroll to bottom right: @PerseusDigLib retrieves commentary from @HellenicStudies
