[sword-devel] Bug:

[Troy A. Griffitts]

Hey guys,
	Sorry for no one responding to you sooner.  We seem to be having
problems with our servlet on the beta site that builds the installer. 
For now, you'll have to use installmgr by pointing it to:
site:
sword.cx
path:
pub/sword/betaraw

or just download the files directly from that ftp location.

	Sorry for the troubles.

			-Troy.
