[jsword-devel] Bible Desktop

[Troy A. Griffitts]

Hey guys,
	I appreciate the bounce on the topic.  As far as I'm concerned you guys 
own this project and have done an awesome job.  In my opinion, Bible 
Desktop sounds great.  A google search doesn't turn up anything conspicuous.

	On another note, with some of the other projects in Java that we've 
done (new flashcard url: http://crosswire.org/flashcards), do you all 
have any ideas on a good way to partition the list 'topics'?  Part of me 
wants to put the Java programmers together, etc.  The little projects 
like FlashCards and others just don't have enough traffic to warrant 
their own list and there are probably more engineers that can actually 
do something with suggestions on your list.  We keep both the sword 
engine and window's frontend traffic on sword-devel, which will be 
parallel to your java work after you do the split.  Just dumping data 
and thinking out loud.  Any thoughts on this would be helpful.

	-Troy.
