Just got the first volume of the Dresden MS, edited by Tim Crawford.  Super 
nice paper, something that will last forever.
   I do have one criticism of this edition however. The computer generated 
tablature is mixed in with the facsimiles, ( a real drag).  It would have be 
much better to put all the facsimiles together in one section, and a reference 
to the computer tab in the back of the book.
     I don't understand Tim Crawford's criteria for eliminating some of the 
facsimiles, and classifying them as damaged, and therefore eliminated from the 
main body of facsimiles.
    I have been reading from Xeroxed copies of these so called, damaged 
facsimiles, for quite a while, with no problems. Oh Well.
