Accordance and Philo

August 15 Kåre Fuglseth, my co-blogger, announced the publication of a digital version of Philo's works on several platforms.
Here is the announcement made by Accordance, on the integration and publication of Philo's works in the Accordance, the well- known program for Biblical studies on Macintosh computers. Suggested publication date is november 2005; perhaps in time for the SBL Annual Meeting?
They further say: "All the extant Greek texts of Philo have been prepared, lemmatized, and initially tagged grammatically by The Norwegian Philo Concordance Project, under the leadership of Norwegian scholar Peder Borgen (University of Trondheim), along with Roald Skarsten (University of Bergen), and Kare Fuglseth (University of Trondheim). The grammatical tagging has been extensively revised and updated for Accordance by Rex A. Koivisto of Multnomah Bible College, Portland, Oregon."
