QSM update?
When was the last time the QSM module was updated?
This resource was originally designed for Accordance, and I have been told by an Accordance representative that they update the resource every year.
The copyright date says 2002. Is that correct?

QSM=Qumran Sectarian Manuscripts?
My copy citation says 2003. The copyright last date is 2002. The date of the Logos resource file is 2012-10-11.
I wonder what updating Accordance does? I am not aware that the manuscripts are being updated nor the tagging. Are you?

We recently received updated files and are working to update the resource. No estimates on when exactly the update will be released.

(1) With DSS there are almost always new fragments--granted, small "insignificant" ones--being discovered and published.
(2) With material that is so fragmentary and so recently published (late '90's for much of the Qumran material), transcriptions will relatively frequently be tweaked, as well as opinions about the morphology and lexicography.
(3) The fragmentary state of the texts and the numerous editorial symbols inevitably lead to typos that need to be corrected.
Within the last 10 years I would think the database has been tweaked to some degree in each of these three ways (at least one or two of them).
