Where did you hear this? It's not on their site yet. That would be so wonderful!

an email from Professor Athanassakis.

Are you on a mailing list or do you personally correspond with him? That's wonderful news! You should post it on Neokoroi.

Yeah, you can finally get a copy and stop eyeballing mine!

I tracked down his email on the UCSB website and emailed him to ask if there was any possibility it would ever come back into print....he responded that it would be reprinted later this year by Hopkins.
