[sword-devel] Google trends about interest in Desktop Bible Software

[Troy A. Griffitts]

I found it interesting and encouraging the people groups we seem to be 
reaching and we should do better to support their language needs with 
good teaching resources.  E.g., it would be really great to have 
Strong's dictionaries translated into languages for these people groups 
and find native language commentaries.  Daniel Owens just submitted a 
Strong's dictionary for Vietnamese.

All of our effort on building software only goes so far if the language 
resources aren't available for our users.  The modules team has such an 
important role.  They could uses new volunteers:
