The incredible unravelling of the Voynich Manuscript

[ReneZ]

It is quite usual for people with a proposed solution, who are looking for feedback, to primarily expect positive feedback. When the feedback is negative (and this can still be constructive), this is somehow not acceptable.

People also often develop a 'blind spot', specifically with respect to their 'plain text'.  Most of the time these are unconnected sentences that don't make any sense, but the proposer of the solution just does not see this and considers it meaningful.
A classical example is in the Hauer and Kondrak paper, for the opening sentence of the MS:
"She made recommendations to the priest, man of the house and me and people".

I think that there has been plenty of "further development, improvement and correction of gaps and errors in my basic work" but with the caveat that this primarily pointed to problems, and there is no great feeling that this solution is generally going in the right direction.
