This is very important question that will be discussed in my commentary. 


To be realistic, I don't differentiate between them. They are good and bad. But as I discussed in bvp earlier, it is important to bring the inner meaning and make mantras understandable. Here most of the commentators both old and new have miserably failed‌ as  I wrote it on वाक्येन वाकं द्विपदा चतुष्पदा।

However I just wanted to know what is written in western world recently.

Is there such a thing as a western perspective on the RV?  What might be the demarcation criteria for such a taxonomy?  And if such a category could be delineated, would it be desirable or fruitful to do so?  In my view, the category "western" or "the West" is best avoided because it is so deeply flawed, conceptually, that whatever you say it is, there are ten counter-examples.  The most obvious of which being that Japan, where much Vedic research is conducted, is east of India.

I prefer to proceed on the basis that all serious scholars are united in their pursuit of truth, wherever their desks may happen to be located.

Best,

Thanks. 
It is good they are moving ahead with this commentary, which was available partly few years ago. 

Still many mantras are left out for being too clear? for example 1.2.4-6 are left. 
I hope they will cover whole rgveda.

This will help us to understand the western perspective which I want to note in my new commentary on first mandala.

Any other suggestions?
