Here it is, at long last: Ernst Steinkellner's much awaited English translation of what is arguably the oldest Indian treatise dealing purely with logic, Dharmakīrti's Hetubindu or, "A Splash of the Logical Reason". Based on the recently rediscovered Sanskrit. In print as well as in Open Access: https://verlag.oeaw.ac.at/produkt/a-splash-of-the-logical-reason/99200857?product_form=4624
