Hi all,

We have permission to publish the EMTV and the Apostles Bible. I don't
know if this small email is sufficient, or is an written contract or
something like that needed?

Greetz,

Simon

Simon;
I was checking out that site that you just gave gave me earlier. As I
was at your site, I was quite intrigued by Murdock's Syriac. 

Yes, you have my permission. Go for it! God bless you, and your work.
