This was in an email to the Society of American Archivists today (I can't find a publicly linkable version):

Some of you may be interested to know that Manuscript MS408 (Voynich) has been deciphered. A peer-reviewed article will be formally published in 2019. In the meantime, three pre-print papers are available to freely download from the linguistics website LingBuzz:

The first paper explains the writing system and language: http://ling.auf.net/lingbuzz/003737

The second paper translates a pictorial map from the manuscript: ling.auf.net/lingbuzz/003808

The thirds paper focuses on volcanic details from the map: ling.auf.net/lingbuzz/004381

Please disseminate this information to other scholars who may find it interesting and useful. Regards, Dr. Gerard Cheshire. University of Bristol.
