Hi,

I just happened upon this URL http://wesley.nnu.edu/gnt/ the other day.  It
seems to be a good Greek study tool.

In the HELP section the "License" file says:

The Product is, and remains, copyright 2002 to Charles John Ruppert, with
exception of specific copyrights as noted in the individual source files.

But then says:

of the License.

The "About the Text" file says regarding the "individual source files":

This Greek text conforms to the following publications.The Greek New
Testament, 3nd corrected ed., ed. K. Aland, M. Black, C. M. Martini, B. M.
Metzger, and A. Wikgren (Stuttgart: WYrttemberg Bible Society, 1983).
Copyright is held by the United Bible Societies (UBS). NOVUM TESTAMENTUM
GRAECE, 26th Edition, ed. K. Aland, J. Karavidopoulos, C. M. Martini, and B.
M. Metzger (Stuttgart: Deutsche Bibelgesellschaft).  Copyright is held by
the Deutsche Bibelgesellschaft. Although the text lacks the critical
apparatus of either publication, it is still protected by copyright.  It has
been graciously released for non-commercial use by the Center for Computer
Analysis of Texts (CCAT) at the University of Pennsylvania.  It is provided
at this link as a free download to end users.  The only requirement is that
all users must register with CCAT according to their user agreement, whether
you use the resource on this site or by downloading the link above.

I just thought I would pass this along in case it would be helpful/might be
possible to incorporate into The Sword Project.
