[bt-devel] Moving away from SourceForge

[Jonathan Morgan]

Hi Jaak,

One possibility would be to move / rebuild the last two or three versions
of BibleTime, and leave the rest on Sourceforge.
That way they are still there if people want them, but it's not common to
go much further back than the latest version.
