First off, i'm most interested as to why Thayers is no longer available, which i didn't realize (i downloaded mine a while ago). Was it determined that it's not actually in the public domain? If that's so, then i can't re-use it either for sharing purposes. But it is available through e-Sword: so i'm a bit puzzled. Can anyone enlighten me to the freedom of this module?
We determined that the module named "Thayer" corresponded to the Online Bible module named "OLBGRK". (And likewise that "BDB" corresponded to OLB's "OLBHEB".)
The problem here is that 1) the modules were not really Thayer or BDB. They did incorporate, I believe, to some extent, definitions from their respective source lexicons. However, we also know that parts of these modules are NOT from these lexicons. On the one hand, this means that they are not really the Thayer/BDB texts, so we don't want to distribute them (at least not under those names). And on the other hand, it also means that they are not public domain texts as we thought they were. Hence, we pulled them from the site a while ago.
