Dear friends,

Several have kindly replied with NCC references to the Tibetan canon catalogues 
of Cordier or Suzuki. I am sorry not to have made it clear at the outset that I 
am well aware of the Tibetan record and this is what has motivated my search 
for evidence on the Indian side. With thanks for your generous efforts, there 
is no need to bother with references to the Tibetan Tanjur.

Harivarman, by the way, seems to have been active late 11th or early 12th c. In 
or around Kashmir, or possibly in what is today west Nepal (Jumla), where his 
works were translated into Tibetan.

best to all,
Matthew
