Hey Brook,

welcome back! =) We're glad to have you!
Thanks for the files you uploaded. What exactly is the difference between the 
libsword1 and the sword rpms? Could that be confusing to users?

I just created a separate sword package, as nobody on the sword list responded 
to my email about binary packages. We'll provide them on our website. Would 
you please move all sword related files to that new Sword package?

I do not think that we should provide module rpms on our site, that is beyond 
our scope. Also, as we will soon develop our SetupWizard tool which will 
manage the modules for users, I am not sure how much need for sword rpms 
there will be for users of BibleTime.
I suggest that you email Troy (scribe@crosswire.org) privately and arrange the 
details with him. I'm sure he can give you access to part of crosswire's ftp 
space where you can upload those modules.

Again, I'm glad you're on our team!

Martin
