In light of the apparent failure of the Migne volumes to gather interest, perhaps Logos could look into publishing Cramer's work, which is a commentary of the entire New Testament taken from ancient Greek writers.

I have added it to the list of books to add!
Thanks for the suggestion.

Seriously, folks... What is wrong with people? Migne is a steal at this price, even though I can't read Latin and my Greek is not adequate for much of it.
$90? It's worth twice that, easily!!!

I'm hoping for the new Orthodox users that should come when the Popular Patristics ship.
Having the Church Fathers in English suffices for me.
I remember hearing a French theologian telling me that the Migne edition needed correcting and improvement. Also, there are places on the net where the Church Fathers can be found whether in Greek or Latin. One is http://graeca.patristica.net/
I have another one which was given to me by a contact in Greece but I would have to search for it. So perhaps as suggested here, the work by Cramer would be highly interesting. I was not aware of this work so find the comment to be interesting.

I get by with the Google ones, but having better search capacity and copy and paste ability would speed things up much better for me - not to mention my eyes would appreciate not having to squint to try to figure out certain letters.
It's true that critical editions are needed, but in many cases I'm not aware that we have anything better than Migne right now.

Since we're on this topic, I'd love to see the three patristic series below make it into Logos at some point!
1. Fathers of the Church
2. Ancient Christian Writers
3. The Works of St. Augustine: A Translation for the 21st Century

Especially the commentary on Galatians by Jerome.
