Dear team,
Recently Fr. Cyrille has submitted a new Chinese locale which he
describes as a "Catholic" version of the Bible book names. I have
committed this, for now, into an 'alt' folder under our locales.d/ folder:
http://crosswire.org/svn/sword/trunk/locales.d/alt/
Here is a direct link to our current zh_CN-utf8.conf locale for Chinese,
which apparently have more "Protestant" names for the Bible books.

Does anyone have thought about this? This touches a bit on what David
asked about a few weeks back-- different traditions having different
names, even though they may share the same language.
Also, this new locale has our new short Bible book names section [Pref
Abbrevs], but our current "Protestant" locale does not yet have these?
Is anyone capable and willing to provide the abbreviations for our
current locale?
Thanks for any thoughts on this,
Troy
