Congratulations guys!!! This is great news! Our Windows users now have
choices 4+ choices! We're really going to have to redo our CD autorun
splash to present these choices to our users.
This is now the time to consider again removing the unsupported "Sword
for Windows", which is condemned by many and misleads many about the
potential of the Sword platform because it appears to be the official
(and thus the "best") one to casual onlookers.
"Removing" is not a good idea, but it's another thing to write honest
guidance in www pages etc. We can call it a "legacy" application which
has served well for years but have now been superseded by more modern
interfaces. It may still be usable for many users: it's small, works
reliably etc.
But if you allow me to go back to BibleTime - if there's anyone
interested in helping us, you are welcome. At the moment we have less
manpower than Xiphos have had for some time, but on the other hand the
Windows port workload is not comparable. Anyways, we can use graphic
designers, C++/Qt coders, Windows specialists, translators etc.
Thorough testing is more important than ever, as the Xiphos developers
already have noticed. We want to find bugs before publishing, so
please try BibleTime.
