I don't consider End Users Publishing and Publishing End Users the same thing :)
The "Publish" option would simply enable the installed set of modules to be 'transformed' into the hypothetical install source format, if we ever decide we need a different install source format. For example, if I install KJV, AraSVD, MHC, StrongsRealGreek, StrongsRealHebrew, Robinsons, and TR on my device, and decide to share my books with someone else, I would have to first press a "Publish" button or some such to generate the format necessary (if a different format ever becomes necessary) for another instance of a SWORD application to install from my books. I believe your idea was for allowing users to publish their authored content to a publicly recognized location for discovery by other users. I don't think I ever voiced disapproval to that idea. I just didn't want to host (police) their content :) Troy On 11/05/2010 03:09 PM, Karl Kleinpaste wrote: > "Troy A.
