I want to submit a new Bible Module

Post by mariappane »

Praise the Lord!

My name is Mariappan. I am from Malaysia.

I have a new Bible Module. This Bible is called Tamil Romanised Bible (Tamil Bible transcribed in Roman Script). This Bible is currently available on my Blog and 2 Android Apps.

Can you add this Bible?

Thank you!


Yours truly
Mariappan

The answer is, I don't know. I hope you can help me to decide.

There is another Tamil Romanised Bible in Malaysia. It was transcribed by a Pastor in Malaysia. He published it as a book. The ISBN of this Book is >>> 978-967-12886--0-3

In this book, it is stated that he has the copyright.

Does that mean that I own the copyright to my work? :roll: :roll: :roll:

It depends what you did.
- did you do the transcription?
- if you did, what was the original text you used? What is the copyright status of the text you transcribed from?

The transcription is 100% my work. The source is the Tamil Bible available in theword.net software.

The Bible I made was on the Internet since 2016. There has been no 'protest' so far. I don't want to claim copyright for this Bible. I am willing to handover all rights if someone claims rights to it.

I just want the Bible to be available (FREE or at cost) to the public. My aim to not to make a profit.

I hope someone will publish it as a Book.
