Might I suggest a team effort. It would benefit a lot of people.
If a framework could be suggested, then the work could be parallelized
and even compared and double-checked by other members of the team. By
framework, I'm thinking in terms of a table format with various polar
(or otherwise) linguistically defined categories. The team could even
report to the BGreek list periodically for even more feedback.
It would be a noble effort. I think the world needs much more
collaborative scholarship.
