[jsword-devel] Keep an eye on NewsForge

[Don Parris]

You're more than welcome!  I do wish I could have given more attention to all of the projects, but as you hopefully can see, I had my hands full with this article. :)  NewsForge did a decent job with their editing - didn't butcher it - and they did wonderful with the links at the bottom.

You're right though, I've run into numerous believers who just have no interest in sharing - code or music or texts.  I am hoping to continue to produce articles that will draw Christians to FOSS projects.  I've already seen one new guy join the Freely Project - I'm guessing as a result of the article.  He's definitely a Linux user.

I just thank God that people like you and the folks developing other Sword projects are willing to share.  I'd hate to think what the applications would look like if y'all weredepending on me to write them! :)

God bless,
Don
