[sword-devel] NETBible plans with Sword modules

[David Austin]

From: Barry Drake Hi there .............. L.Allan-pbio wrote: Just curious ... what is the status of The CrossWire Society and relevant permissions, licensing, and copyright of the NET Bible notes from Bible.org and/or BSF (Biblical Studies Foundation) and/or Biblical Studies Press? It is the intention of bible.org that there should be a free NET bible module for Sword with a limited set of notes (the first few verses of each book, I think) and a version with the full notes that is available for the payment of a small fee to bible.org. I'm looking forward very much to its release - the NET bible and notes is one of my most cherished bible resources. God bless, Barry -- From Barry Drake (The Revd) minister of the Netherfield United Reformed church, Nottingham see http://www.jesusinnetherfield.org.uk for our church homepages). Barry states it correctly: www.Bible.org has  just finished, after 10 yrs and several millions of dollars, the First Edtion of the NETBible see our NETBible page http://www.bible.org/default.asp?scid=3 . We are now working on (with Barrys help)  two NETBible sword modules. to add to the various versions that can be downloaded for free or purshased at resonable costs off the www.bible.org site.. 1- a free NETBible Sword module with the full NETBible text and limited notes approxiamently 3 per chapter plus i hope a link to any of the notes that are not included so even the free version has access from our web site all the notes 2-  a for pay version premium version that has the full NETBible text and all 60,000+ plus notes.  + some extras In addition to the above we are working on puting the NETBible in a data base and making it and its notes searchable. If any of you would like to become alphas testers on that register for the www.bible.org/forum  and join forum discussion 8e1 . We would love to have help in specifying the requirements that go into the next gerneration on-line bible and what you would like to see incorporated in our Sword development/ 3- I have a call into Troy to see if we need to do anything formally with crosswire.org IN HIS SERVICE David Austin (Permissions Director)        [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~Join our users in the forum http://www.bible.org/forum where you can ask questions and get answers ~Read , download and buy a leather NETBIBLE and download for free over 3500 studies at http://www.bible.org
