Someone has been working on a proposal for the Babylonian and other non-Tiberian vowel points, but progress has been slow or non-existent. Probably more expert help is needed, which you, Trevor, might be able to give. I could put you in touch with the intending proposer, off list. Mind you, the Aramaic, Phoenician etc outline proposals have not been progressing for several years either, but they are in the queue and the roadmap so a little ahead of the Babylonian etc pointing. But it is the kind of queue which can be jumped quite easily if anyone wants to put in the necessary effort e.g. to draft a formal proposal and to gather some scholarly and technial support. The proposals that languish are ones which are put forward for completeness rather than usefulness.
