Regarding my last email:
http://www.crosswire.org/pipermail/sword-devel/2005-September/022678.html

I would like to know your thougts about the permission I'm asking.  Can
I add the Strong's numbers of KJV2003 to a translations of the gospels 
that is in the public domain?

http://www.gutenberg.net/etext/12500
http://www.gutenberg.net/etext/12501
http://www.gutenberg.net/etext/12502
http://www.gutenberg.net/etext/12503

Obviously I will give credit. Please check the first footnote of each
gospel, there you will find the credits, and there I would add Crosswire 
and the volunteers that helped to add Strong numbers to KJV2003 (someone else,
or more specific credits?).

I prefer to ask for this permission, since I'm confused about the status
of the Strong's numbers in the KJV module (GPL licensed or public domain?).
At:
http://www.crosswire.org/sword/modules/ModInfo.jsp?modName=KJV
I read:
'CrossWire Bible Society hereby grants a general public license to use 
this text for any purpose.'

However at http://www.crosswire.org/sword/kjv2003/index.html (also
attached) I read:
'For our first new text project, we're starting a KJV / Textus Receptus 
parallel text which will be placed into the public domain upon
completion.'

Please let me know.

Best regards.  God illuminate us.
