[sword-devel] Portuguese module faq AND Other Bible Texts

[André Isidio de Melo]

Hello,

I think what I have read in some sites like this one:
http://pt.wikisource.org/wiki/Ferreira_de_Almeida_Atualizada
have induced me to think "that the Bible João Ferreira de Almeida 
Atualizada (AA) was in Public Domain".
It was for this reason that I suggested to search for a version non 
corrupted...
How I have no more information about this "supposed version", and there 
is a big chance I'm wrong, I'd like to apologize myself.

For the moment I am a little busy.
But I think I'll find some way to contribute to this good project, maybe 
helping to translate to the Portuguese some modules like Peter von 
Kaehne suggested.

Sorry for the anything,
André Isidio de Melo
