[Sw-l] Gospels in SWML, anyone?

[Machado]

As I have mentioned in Alex's thread, I'd like to append to my inquiry a
question to the list:

Is there any of you guys using gloss-based SL texts. Does anyone know about
some "large*" corpora available in that format?

*large... or else :-)

Best
Machado
