Micheal Palmer is the one to respond more precisely to the other half of
the question, but I can tell you that Micheal is a member of a team headed
up by Daryl Schmidt to write a new grammar for Hellenistic Greek and early
Christian Literature--one that, assuming it is successful, would probably
supplant BDF. There are some resources related to the project on his
bibliography page:

Several materials related to the project have in the past been available at
http://www.entmp.org/HGrk/
but those pages are currently under restructuring by James Tauber at his
site in Perth, Australia.
I don't know whether Micheal can say anything more or not, but I hope so,
since this is clearly a matter of interest and of major importance to all
of us who care at all about the Greek Bible.
