Daniel deSilva = David Arthur deSilva?

I just wonder about the authorship (or being editor) of the Lexham Septuagint.

Is this the same person (as stated when I search "deSilva" in my library, but not when I look in the resources myself, there is says Daniel is the editor).

I have some doubts, perhaps someone can clarify this for me.

Which Lexham Septuagint? They offer 4 or 5 I think.

This one shows David A. DeSilva.

Seems like an error. Logos please take note.

Cover page shows Daniel:

But author and citation show his name as David:

It's even worse than that. Two list 'deSilva', two list 'De Silva', all list 'David A' instead of 'Daniel'.

I put it on the Metadata page.

We've updated the metadata from Daniel deSilva to David A. deSilva. The metadata correction page has been updated as well.

We've also put the offending title pages in an update queue. I have no estimated date on when that will be fixed.

Didn't you get that wrong? The metadata wasn't Daniel deSilva.

And couldn't you fix the other author issue with the Lexham Septuagints at the same time? It's been on the Metadata page for quite some time now, and it was on the line above, so you ought to have seen it.

And, since we're talking metadata, when are you going to fix everything else? We add and add, but you haven't fixed anything for 5 months now. Making nice collection rules is meaningless when you don't give us the correct metadata to support them.

Thanks, Kyle. Glad to see the metadata correction page getting some attention from Logos again. It's been months.
