I’m looking for information about the Hiri Motu translation from Papua New Guinea.

It is not available as an official resource in Paratext 7, but we have an unofficial Hiri Motu resource that somebody in PNG must have created at some point in the past.

Does anybody know about this? Where it came from? What copyright came with it? Do we (probably SIL) have permission to distribute it in Paratext 7 and/or Paratext 8?

Thank you,

See http://ebible.org/find/details.php?id=hmo&all=1 for a link to a zip file containing USFM files of Hiri Motu. Other PNG translations are available that way, too. See http://eBible.org/find.

Excellent! That even has full copyright/CC info. Nice!

Thank you,

I just learned that Hiri Motu is officially available from the DBL now. Thank you Paratext team!
