Re: Reading the Voynich MS in Voynich

 A while back I toyed with the idea (and discussed it
 with some friends offline) of getting enough money
 together using donations, grants, etc. to pay Yale to
 take a set of images of the VMS using standard, IR,
 UV, and maybe other formats as well. This would be
 complete, large-format, high-resolution images of
 EVERY page. The resulting (rather large, I would
 imagine) database of images and data could be put onto
 a set of CDs or DVD-ROMs.
 
 These images would be of extremely high quality and
 the thought I had was that Yale could be convinced to
 undertake such an effort in return for having the
 right to distribute the resulting CDs/DVDs as long as
 they were free of cost (except media and/or delivery
 costs).

   I agree !!  One additional point would be the preservation of the 
MS itself ... and IT could be saved in it's entirety from hence forth.

Best to you & yours
