[sword-devel] ISV status?

Come now Peter, don't be so quick to find fault.

The Crosswire repository currently contains version 1.5 of the ISV module.
Nic's question was asking about the inclusion of the OT in that module.
The Crosswire site doesn't say anything about the status of this module,
and Nic's question seems to suggest he was not aware Crosswire was
prohibited from distributed a later versions of this module.  His comment
was specifically asking about the ISV with OT included suggesting this was
already  direction that was being pursued.

I was trying to extend an offer to help (as a volunteer).  I certainly
wasn't aware that permission hadn't been obtained to distribute the ISV
with the OT, and the fact the ISV is already distributed with the NT
suggests (perhaps incorrectly) that permission has been already obtained.
Once Chris made it known that Crosswire has no such permission to
distribute newer versions of the ISV I did exactly as Chris asked.  So what
infraction have I committed now?

Respectfully, if every time a newcomer or volunteer's offer is met with
criticism or controversy the treatment of newcomers and volunteers in this
group is going to appear somewhat suspect and unwelcoming.  It's a very
good way to drive people away from a project.  If my lack of awareness of
this prohibition on the ISV is why you're asking me to leave - that says
much about this community.

Now that I know Crosswire doesn't have permission to distribute versions of
the ISV other than the one currently in the repository, I'll respect that.
If others feel as you do, that outside contributions are unwelcome here - I
will kick the sand from my sandals and leave
