Hi-
For those of you looking for useful versions of Laozi in Chinese, Nina Correa (Dao is Open) has just finished modifying her recent side-by-side Text Comparisons page to include Fu Yi. It now has all six major redactions of the Daodejing text- Wang Bi, Heshang Gong, Fu Yi, Mawangdui A and B and the Guodian, together with her own synthesis, placed side by side. This makes it really easy to see the differences. It's also useful in glossing particular terms where alternate words have been used historically.This has the Traditional characters with Pinyin and tones, in a downloadable pdf format so it's independent of your fonts and encoding settings. It's lots of good work and it's offered for free. Here's the link:
