"Looking into it" for Bible publishers usually means "trying to develop solution in-house".
Applies to Thomas Nelson, NET and many others. They all are trying to grow their own software development houses so they can maximize their revenues. Such houses will never, of course, be able to reach neither the speed nor the quality of dedicated software developers and electronic publishers...but business wise, this is not so important. The fact is that true followers are created by the organization who promotes the particular Bible translation most, and for a long time in future e-publishers will not be able to compare with brick and mortar paperback and tv channel promoters subsidized by the translation copyright owner.
BEIKS is all open to working with every single publisher and I am yet to see a SINGLE partnership fail due to unacceptably high demands on our end.
They wouldn't even listen :-)
