Please install KDE2 in a different directory than KDE1 ;-)
Use QT 2.1.1, it contains lots of bugfixes (and some new bugs ;-) .

That's cool to have a new developer!

To unlock the modules you have to be subscribed to the SWORD list.
And: It's only for testing! If you want to use these modules daily please 
contact the copyright holder of the modules and ask them to make them 
available.
I know this isn't probably the thing you wanted to hear. It's sad but true 
that these companies have a copyright on the Bible.
You get the keys if you ask on the SWORD developer list for the "SWORD 
developer page".
But if you are a developer of BIbleTime or SWORD you may use them (for 
testing ;-).

BibleTime 0.3beta1 has a dialog to enter the key for a module to unlock it 
and writes it to the config if it has write acces to the config files.

I finally sent my letter to the "Deutsche Bibelgesellschaft", it took weeks 
;-)
