The NA27/UBS4 and the NA26/UBS3 are, indeed, not identical. However, they
are owned by the same organizations and they are nearly identical. For
that reason, you won't get a different position unless their policy has
changed pretty drastically. GBS, like most groups, doesn't distinguish
"private, noncommercial purposes" from other uses.

Hi
N27U4 is NOT N26U3!
AFAIK distribution of N26U3 is not illegal - but I've just asked GBS
this question.
If they confirm that it's OK to distribute the module (I expect it - as
we underline that it is only for "educational or private, noncommercial
purpose") - I shall add it to links mentioned on the page
http://biblijna.strona.pl/sword/PL.htm.

Richard,
We once had an unlocked N27U4 module and were specifically
denied
by the German Bible Society permission to distribute such. I would
strongly discourage illegal distribution of your module and must insist
that you discontinue posting links to it on this forum. I don't like
the
fact that we don't have this module available, but we need to work
within
legal requirements.
Having said this, we DO have a Westcott-Hort Greek text with NU
variants marked. Most of our client software will allow you to show the
NU variants only.

Hello everyone.
For those of you who are interested, I have just made a new release of
the Nestle-Aland 26th ed. /United Bible Societies 3rd ed. of the Greek
New Testament text. It is not groundbreaking in any way; it simply
fixes the final sigmas in parentheses and changes the underscores '_'
to the proper symbol, the hyphen '-'.
You can get the updated module at
http://sword.strona.pl/downloads/na26-ubs3.raw.zip
http://sword.strona.pl/downloads/na26-ubs3.zip (this one is with
installer for windows) Thanks again to Wojciech Bartminski for hosting
this module.
This is an unofficial module; it is not part of the Sword project
itself. This begs the question: Would the Sword Project be willing to
have a webpage with links to third party modules like this one? It
would be useful for modules which Sword could not distribute,
including, hopefully, future commercial ones, as well as modules that
are not related to the purpose of Sword (e.g. Herodotus). Just a
thought.
In His service,
