So Ether and I are putting together a bit of a list of Gnostic texts. I'll likely expand it as it goes- but I figured it would be good to have some texts that might not fit into the classic "Pagan" sources.

Well, let's toss out the most complete list of Gnostic texts- starting with the older gospels.

I want to include some good info on Mainstream Canon as well.

My problem is that there seems to be a shift in names between some of the translations you cite and some of mine and I don't want to duplicate them.

That's going to take me a while to gather up a decent amount of works.
