I see no cause to believe that this software is based on (J)Sword.
He has taken some of our content. From what I can tell, it's all public
domain content. He also shows us the courtesy of linking back to
CrossWire and giving us credit as the source of his content. That's more
than I can say for the content we produced that inexplicably (without
permission, notice, or credit given) has found its way into e-Sword.
