Grammars using Disc Anal (was Re: Student of Guthrie)

Has a teaching grammar employing a discourse analysis approach
been developed yet for Biblical Greek?  Somehow, in the cobwebs
of my memory, I recall a mention of an intermediate or advanced
grammar using this approach, but I am most interested in a
beginning grammar.  It would complement the beginning Hebrew
course that I am using very successfully.  The grammar for that
course, by the way, was written by one of the co-chairs of the
b-hebrew list, Bryan Rocine.

Any ideas or any reports of works in progress?

Thanks,

Paul
