[INDOLOGY] Sūrya-siddhānta critical edition?

[Lubomír Ondračka]

I just uploaded the pdf of the book that David sent me:
https://archive.org/details/suryasiddhanta-shukla

If anyone have the pdf of Sumatitantram that David writes about in the 
next email, please send it to me, I would be happy to upload it on 
archive.org as well.

Best
Lubomir
