Question for Bob: What are the plans for Non-English Bibles?
I am so happy to see all the new resources being given to us Beta testers. I thank God for you Bob and the Team. I have just one question concerning the Big Day of the release of Logos 4. I am planning to give information on our web page in the Czech language (I am part of the blogger group) but I would definitely need to mention Czech Bibles situation. What are the plans? Can I say modern Czech Bibles are to be offered in the near future? One translation? All 4 of them? I communicated with both you (here) and others (emails) about it but never got any answer. Since last year has been really fruitful in the new Bible Translations in the Czech language (it has never been so before) we have a chance to be the first to have that new translations and the most common one (The Ecumenical Bible) in Logos. Especially in the situation that pbb Bibles are not available in Logos 4. Please give me one simple piece of info about the Czech Bibles (and other European languages) I can include into the promo of Logos 4 here. I will be very thankful and it would help me to build the momentum for Logos 4 in our country. In a few weeks we are going to have an European Missions Conference and I would be very happy to present Logos 4 there if possible. Thank you very much.

Don't forget that, while it doesn't answer your question, PBB support will be added soon after 4.0 as I recall.
Sarcasm is my love language. Obviously I love you.

Yes, I hope. It works well for all other documents but not Bibles. They are very inferior against the Logos Bibles. However it might change with Logos 4. We will see.

I don't know the status of licensing the Czech Bibles yet; I forwarded your earlier info and requests to our publisher relations team, but haven't heard yet.
Once we have the rights (and now that 4.0 has it's initial release done) we can work on getting them into the system. I'll check in on this.

Thank you Bob for that answer. I appreciate that. Last time I spoke with the president of the Board of Czech Bible Society, he said they are very much interested in publishing the Ecumenical Bible, the most popular Czech Bible, in Logos. Others as well (Bible for the 21 Century and Czech Study Translation). I am looking forward to hearing some more about that. I am willing to help as much as I can. Just let me know how can I be of help. I want to encourage Czech pastors to get Logos 4 very much.
