Yes

I tried to create all of the po files.  If I had been completely
successful, only the po files would be needed.  As it is, the files
supporting the po files (german only) that have size = zero need some
work.  There are apparently some paragraph mismatches between the german
and english.  Either my english is changed from the one that the
translation was done on, or the translation did not map paragraphs
exactly.

I did not attempt to do split2po on cz or it.

Do not let the included common folders build in to the installed
bibletime, of the rpm binaries.  I would have used symlinks if I knew
how to make relative symlinks.  The /common is only for use in viewing
the html pages in the cvs.  This file is about 27kb, which i did not
think too big.  If it is, it can be deleted.

I have added target files in the cs, de, and it files.  These look ok,
but are really the old files with the file names changed by hand.  The
internal links do not work, but the target files should be Ok for
experimenting.

II Chronicles 7:14 (The Webster Bible)
If my people, who are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and
pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I
hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

Luther Bible
Und mein Volk sich demütigt, das nach meinem Namen genannt ist, daß sie
beten und mein Angesicht suchen und sich von ihren bösen Wegen bekehren
werden: so will ich vom Himmel hören und ihre Sünde vergeben und ihr
Land heilen.

Spanish Reina-Valera Bible
Si se humillare mi pueblo, sobre los cuales ni nombre es invocado, y
oraren, y buscaren mi rostro, y se convirtieren de sus malos caminos;
entonces yo oiré desde los cielos, y perdonaré sus pecados, y sanaré su
tierra.
