Peers have mentioned updates to the ASV, and the Bibliotheca project is also updating the ASV. Interestingly, the rationale for editing the ASV given in the Kickstarter campaign [0] does not mention copyright as a factor, instead it focuses on literary factors. However, in the comments on the last update [1], amidst general grousing about the translation choice (and mainly how long the editing effort is taking) someone speculated about copyright, so maybe we'll hear more about that angle in a future update.

- strictnein 11y agoHope that's not the case. Or, if it is the case, I hope it doesn't delay things further. I'm more excited by the idea of the Bibliotheca than any other thing I've backed on Kickstarter. I currently have four sets on order. One for myself and three as gifts for some close friends. They'll be for Christmas 2016 now, which is too bad, but oh well.
- shoover 11y agoI didn't meant to imply there's any potential legal issue bearing on the schedule beyond what the editing is taking for literary reasons. The comment (from someone ostensibly not in the know) suggested that out-of-copyright was a reason the ASV was selected. Whereas that hadn't been mentioned officially, my curiosity is whether that's true. I have posted a comment asking about copyright intentions for their edition.
- strictnein 11y agoahh, sorry, misread that.
