It is certainly hard to find a copy to buy. I'd guess that most theological
libraries have a copy, so it is not inaccessible in that regard. On the
other hand, there are possibly several generations of Greek students that
have never had a convenient, affordable opportunity to buy a copy. If your
"current project" involves the possibility of Hendrickson reprinting an
English edition of Winer, I'd vote YES. Winer has been superceeded in some
areas, but I think it is still of sufficient value to warrant a reprint.
