I'd rather that you mentioned my name in an impervious post. :-)

I don't *think* anyone else has been working on Granado -- though 
Helwyse is working on Scappi, which is the original source for many of 
the recipes.  Frankly, that's one of the reasons I'm not inclined to 
embark on a complete translation -- so much of it would be duplicating 
her work.

I'm feeling somewhat tempted by Gabriel Alonso de Herrera's agricultural 
manual, or at least sections of it.  I'm not sure I'd have much patience 
for chapters on how to fertilize a vineyard, or the care of pregnant 
goats, but other parts, like the descriptions of vegetables, and how to 
make vinegar, are interesting.
