Back then, this looked like an interesting possibility, and still does. However, the BibleTime's user interface hasn't been designed for handheld devices. Straightforward porting would probably make a poor user experience. I would rather recommend designing a new simple UI which then would automatically work on all platforms, adding not only an S60 application to our offerings but also a small, simple cross-platform application. This is only my opinion which is based on very superficial knowledge on S60 port of Qt. I would be happy if someone really ported BT for S60 and if it worked.
