[sword-devel] Bisaya-Inunhan New Testament (Philippines)

[David Haslam]

My concern is that the SWORD module should faithfully represent all the
features of the published translation, inasmuch as this is feasible.

The translator (Eldon Leano Talamisan) is originally from Tablas Island. The
language is described here 

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Onhan_language

I have already made a derived VPL text (without notes and headings), and
created a Go Bible version (via ThML as the input for Go Bible Creator). All
Go Bible apps use only the basic book/chapter/verse text, without any
adumbrations. 

I don't yet have any experience of making a SWORD module, hence the requests
for assistance.
