[sword-devel] A new alternate versification?

[Tuomas Airaksinen]

Hi,

I have created two finnish modules (FinRK and FinSTLK2017) by choosing
"best fit" and doing then some manual
(or sometimes scripted) changes such that it matches with that
versification of my choice (here: German, which is
same as Luther, but without apogrypha). It was causing some complaining by
copyright holders, though, as my
modules don't match 100% with their printed bibles.

If you "cheat", then if you have translations opened in parallel, their
verses don't match everywhere.

Best regards,
Tuomas
