I have a similar "Problem" with german bible translations.  But most
translations are free for browsing and private usage.  So there is no
legal way to provide sword packages.  But why not provide scripts, which
allow every user to build up his own package?
Just downloading, some magic sed/awk to transform it to OSIS-XML and
import it into sword?
Is this a possible way?  What do you think?

In his love,
