[sword-devel] Other Bible Texts

[Sergio QUEIROZ]

Hi André,

Concerning the effort of digitizing a public domain text, the project is
at Distributed Proofreaders (DP). Everybody can help, once you have
created an account with DP, you can already start proofreading a text in
proofreading phase 1 (at this moment Luke's Gospel is at this stage).
For the details, see http://www.pgdp.net/wiki/Portuguese/Biblia_1911 .


Yours,


Sergio
