<h2>Overview</h2>
20+
<p>
21+
The OET is given a version number (similar to
22+
software packages) and it’s currently at{' '}
23+
<b>v0.47</b>. (The full version number can always be

found in the first paragraph on{' '}

We have a list of terms which have to be made more

59+
plan to do that before we reach v0.5. We also need

<h3>Literal Version</h3>
75+
<p>
76+
The <em>OET-LV</em> OT is still missing a few word
77+
and morpheme glosses, and we aren’t totally
78+
satisfied with a few others, but in general it’s
79+
reliable to use.
80+
</p>
81+
<h3>Readers’ Version</h3>
82+
<p>
83+
The <em>OET-RV</em> OT is not complete yet (missing
84+
Leviticus, Isaiah, and Jeremiah), and the spelling
85+
of names are not yet fully consistent. However,
86+
although you might find the occasional typo, the
87+
text is quite reliable to use.

<h3>Literal Version</h3>

<p>

The <em>OET-LV</em> NT is gratefully adapted from an
95+
early version of the forthcoming Verifiable Literal

Translation created by the{' '}

(which we also volunteered for, for a time). A few
101+
books haven’t been properly reordered yet (we try to
102+
make the sentences closer to English{' '}
103+
<span title='Subject/Verb/ObjectSVO'>SVO</span>{' '}
104+
order), and the SR-GNT/VLT still breaks the Greek
105+
text into an excessive number of (shortish)
106+
sentences, but the <em>OET-LV</em> NT is perfectly
107+
reliable to use.
108+
</p>
109+
<h3>Readers’ Version</h3>
110+
<p>
111+
The <em>OET-RV</em> NT is complete and reliable to
112+
use, although it might still contain a few typos,
113+
several inconsistencies, and it doesn’t yet have all
114+
the formatting markup that has been applied to OT
115+
books. (We plan to apply that formatting before we
116+
reach v0.5.)
117+
</p>
118+
<h2 id='plans'>Future plans</h2>
119+
<p>
120+
Once the OET reaches v0.5 (expected around August,
121+
2026), we plan to start actively promoting it in
122+
order to get more eyes onto the text.
123+
</p>
124+
<p>
125+
Also at that time, we plan to start work on making
126+
PDFs and other exports available for download (or
127+
for printing a few test copies).
