What version of Natya Shastra do you use? Present day translations are said to rely on a manuscript not found earlier than around 1860 AD?

Btw, this government funded institute (ashram) vows the
establishment of a model sanskrit theatre (Natyamandap) as per norms of Bharata's Natya Shastra with a view to attempt authentic reconstruction of the ancient style ....
This project aims at preparing critical edition and Hindi and English translation of Natya Shastra. The editing and translation work of Natya Shastra is going on. This project is getting the financial support from the Ford Foundation, U.S.A. .
FUTURE PLANS
* Publication of Natyashastra according to the commentary of Abhinavagupta.

since no time limit is given I imagine it might take many decades to fulfill this noble aim?
