NOTICE: the Wujek corpus is public domain
Drops the copyright caveat on the ~300 deuterocanonical verses sourced from the 1962 edition, and the redistribution restriction that followed from it, on the author's ruling. The source edition stays recorded as provenance so the corpus can still be re-derived or checked. The SBLGNT attribution is untouched: CC BY 4.0 requires it of anyone redistributing the text, which a fullbible binary does.
