It's the lemmatization that I've mostly focused on over the last
twelve years on and off.
You are correct that the original CCAT database made available in
1993 has a lot of errors -- thousands, if you count instances.
If you get the CCAT file from anywhere other than jtauber.com or
morphgnt.org, you are probably getting either the original CCAT
release from 1993 or one from around 1995 with my first round of
corrections. It's the latter which Broman and others were making
available (and which was the basis for the late Tony Fisher's site).
However, many significant corrections have been made since then,
especially in 2002 and since 2004.
Since December 2005, I've been working with Ulrik Petersen (who in
parallel to my CCAT/UBS work had been working on Tischendorf and
other texts). We are working on integrating our data, the first
fruits of which should be available soon.
