  Tiny procedural change

  by Caminante in

  1. watchtower

  since i have my own software to track pdf publication uploads and changes on jw.org and simplify publication downloads, i looked behind the reasons why certain publications had been updated this last month (first the know the truth tract in hungarian which i knew of it didn't have any recent textual revisions, and then bible teach book, which had suffered a further update the picture on page 3 was replaced).

  i noticed one little procedural change, which 99 percent of the witnesses won't even notice, but the publications printed since the start of this service year no longer have "all rights reserved" on the publishers' page.

  first i thought it was a mistake, but it's for real.

  Watchtower Languages

  by Caminante in

  there was a piece of boe material---and i'm not refering to latest watchtower publications list (s-15)---where there was a list of all language updates to the watchtower magazine effective 2013 and other new publication announcements.

  i remember reading it somewhere (it must have been obviously on this forum), but apparently i can't find it on my computer.

  does anyone of you recall that specific piece of info?

  Need help in identifying a Bible translation

  2. bible

  i'm working on transcribing the full 3 hour recording of ray franz's visit in romania of over five years ago and i realize he quotes from a pretty unfamiliar bible translation.

  well, it's unfamiliar to me--it might not be for you though--and i don't seem to find it anywhere online.

  as a clue, i have the verses from 1 peter 4:8-10. they read as follows: "above all, let your love for one another be constant, for love covers a multitude of sins.

  a friend of mine, active jw, is about to go to the states and needs an english ahcd document.

  can any of you provide me a scan of the latest revision of the us edition of it?

  i found an australian version that pretty much resembles the current romanian revision used here (nov. 2004), but i'm not sure it's accurate according to us laws and/or the us version of the form.

  Commentary Press contact person?

  does anyone of you know who is now in charge of commentary press?

  i'd like to publish an official romanian edition of crisis of conscience (some unofficially translated chapters had been available on the net for several years, but i worked on translating an official edition, which is now being proofread in its composed form in order to get the ready-for-print status) and have to get somebody from commentary press to work out the legal agreement..
