Hi,

A Latvian user has checked the Latvian NT in the Crosswire Beta repository
(see below) and confirms that the problem regarding incorrect characters is
fixed in the beta version.  He would like the beta module to be moved into
the live repository.

Best regards
Martin

Hi Martin, looks and works perfect!!!
Letters are correct and even search engine is working!
Would be great if this version could be activated for AndBible app!

Let me know when it is done - I will spread the news to hungry folks!
;)
be blessed
Martins
