The ESV is already there, it is called E11 (short name). Download it from the Digital Bible Library (by going to File, Install Resources.) The NLT, I don’t know. Because resources now come from the DBL, it’s a question of whether the copyright holder will licence NLT to be used by your particular category of user in Paratext. Apply directly to the copyright holders of NLT, requesting that they release their version to Paratext users.

I do not see ESV (E11) or NLT available for download from the DBL in PT8 at the moment. I did see ESV (E11) available a few months ago, though, but just for a very brief period.

I do not see ESV (E11) either in PT8.

According to the smartsheet, Crossway is asking that a notification be attached to the ESV that it should not be used as a base translation, only as a reference. So it seems negotiations are in process.

You are right, anon716631, it has been withdrawn. I got it when it was available, but it is not now.
