The entry on the voynich days have a lot of the most recent information and research. The past two years were great as they had a lot of research about the way the text behaves( loops , line as a function etc) Lisa Fagin Davis scribe work and the naibbe cipher. YouTube has the videos.
I particularly love the research Tavie does on the text features and Patrick Feaster’s loops, but there are many incredible researchers.
The 2022 Voynich conference is also great.
Also René is the glue that holds a lot of this together- his site will have latest info. But the work is slow and hard won.
Enjoy the rabbit holes

I'm new here. I'm an independent researcher and my focus is on text statistics — specifically whether the structure of Voynichese tokens fits known morphological patterns when systematically compared across corpora from different language families. The goal is typological, not a specific decipherment: trying to characterise what kind of writing system the statistics point to, before asking which one. Stolfi's work on the structural properties of the text is what initially attracted me. I found the forum very interesting and I'm sure I still have a lot to learn here. -

I've created a Voynich search engine. Use it to see what has been discussed before.. You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. -

Thank you — that's exactly the kind of resource I needed. Very useful to have a searchable archive, especially on the statistical side. I'll be spending some time going through it!
