To begin, we would like to utilize the NASB version.

I think NASB is good to go with as a default. It is in line with the kind of commentary we want and is thought of as a solid translation, RSV and NIV being the other good ones.
For the long run, I don't see that it is out of the question to have a wiki-translation either, even if NASB is the default. I think that the wiki is a good forum for this since students et al can work on it. A couple of passages that I have posted on include my own translation.
As an aside, Jen had our 4th on Sunday... Ethan Elijah. We have also recieved an Air Force assignment to Syracuse. This was a big change from what we were expecting but allows me to complete my PhD coursework for philosophy and begin the disertation.
Very Best,
Joel

Hi all,I got the email below from the NASB people. One part of their agreement (below) requires us to make the NASB the default translation unless the user chooses another version as their default. Are we ok with this? I'm going to ask them what we do if another version requires teh same thing, but I'm assuming we'll agree to that requirement to get the version if they will not budge.Let me know if not.
