The purpose of this list is to keep track of who is doing which manuscript.
This may aid scholars who may be searching for information, translation
assistance, or deciding on their next project. This list is also intended
to help avoid duplication of effort. Please contact me if you are working
on a culinary manuscript project and wish it to be listed here.
