Looking forward to seeing this expanding our understanding of the Hittite lexicon and its relationship with the rest of the Indo-European languages.

It looks like this is fairly late in Hittite's evolution, though, 14th century BCE.

Clarity about relationship with the rest of PIE would definitely be enhanced by having a corpus from substantially earlier on.
