I just saw an interesting panel discussion from 2016 at the Pontifical Biblical Institute, entitled The Hebrew Bible in the Making. Michael Segal, Julio Trebolle, Stephan Pisano, and Hugh Williamson discuss current editions of the Hebrew Bible, which will be of interest to those who want to know more about the current editorial projects.

The Hebrew University Bible Project
The Hebrew University Bible Project got a little sensationalistic attention from an AP reporter recently here. In truth the scholars of the Bible project should be commended for their extraordinary efforts in exhaustively collating the textual evidence, but there is nothing revolutionary about it. Ironically, the policy of the HUBP is not even to give evaluation of variants... :) The end result of the project will be the fullest listing of the evidence to date, but most of the significant problems have already been discovered and discussed. Nevertheless, we can look forward to the completion of the project as a great help for OT textual criticism... hopefully sooner than 2211! For anyone who wants more information on the Hebrew University Bible, fuller explanation can be found on pages 19-20 of my master's thesis here.
