Dear Sword
Team & KMTAye,
Greetings. Sorry for the late reply.
I have been on the road for some missions trip.
I have recently revisited Myanmar
was out internet communication for a while.
Updates
on the Myanmar Bible Project:
Phase
1: Complete Burmese Language Bible Software.
1. New Testament (Judson Version)
has been completed typed and in the process of editing.
2. Old Testament (Judson Version)
has begun and will take 1-3 months to complete typing.
Began to interface this soft copy of
Judson Version Burmese Bible with the Sword Project Platform.
Have 8 volunteers in Myanmar,
Malaysia and USA helping right now.
Target to complete the Beta version
of Burmese Bible by December 2004. New Testament by July 2004.
Need Help:
(1) To produce Burmese Unicode for
the software..... so that the entire software can be operated by
Burmese literate people with no English functionality. There is
currently Myanmar fonts and the "ability to do word processing using
this true type fonts."
PHASE 2:
Complete Chin, Kachin, Karen and other Myanmar languages .
1. Many of these tribal languages
used Roman alphabets and therefore post lesser technical challenges. I
am confident to be able to secure permission for various Bible
Societies to install the Bible into the sword project.
PHASE
3: Bible Commentaries, Bible Dictionary, Sermons and other helps in
Burmese language.
PHASE
4: Making the Myanmar Bible Software available to the Myanmar churches
world-wide.
PHASE
5: Continual Research and Development of more Myanmar Bible Reference
Materials.
