[sword-devel] [xiphos-devel] Xiphos 4.0.7

[Daniel Glassey]

FYI "Unit 193" already got it into Debian unstable.
https://packages.debian.org/sid/xiphos

The Ubuntu ppa https://launchpad.net/~pkgcrosswire/+archive/ubuntu/ppa
is way out of date, so if anyone wants to help get the package there
they would be welcome. And someone may get it into Debian backports.

HTH,
Daniel
