Hi Kevin, everybody!
I started work on BibleTime sometime in April, 2009 by providing
Estonian GUI translations and a few patches. I got commit access in
August 2009 and for some weird reason I'm currently the project lead. :D
(...and I have never actually used BibleTime on a regular basis...)

Same situation here. And I fear the lack of time for me to work on
BibleTime might worsen in the future, because of the increasing need to
fight evil and lies within the Church.

We don't currently have anything like that for BibleTime, since we're
few and busy. Many of the new features that users have seen in BibleTime
lately are there because we just implemented them without much
discussion and they have been generally accepted.
Something I have stated ever since I joined the project, is that a lot
of old code in BibleTime is still of unsatisfactory quality and
architecturally unsound. Too much legacy. This makes adding new features
a very hard job. We've tried to fix that as much as possible, but
there's still a long way to go, and we're taking it step by step.
Personally, I hope the next small step towards our goal is what Patrick
is currently working on - a refactoring of the configuration system. I
don't yet fully understand what his branch does, but I still hope for
the best outcome. :)
God bless!
Jaak
