[sword-devel] Bishop 1.7.0 released.

[Tom Sullivan]

Y'all:

With regard to the video idea, it is necessary for me to think carefully 
as I write to avoid being uncharitable. You see, videos cut off the deaf 
from learning. There has been software that I never learned to fully use 
because there was no documentation other than watching a bunch of stuff 
jumping around with no explanation of what was what and why.

So if you make videos, please put everything that is spoken in text on 
the screen or implement closed-caption.

Also, some of us live in remote areas and have limited bandwidth. 
Printed documentation does have its advantages. Thank God Moses and Paul 
lived before electronics existed.

This is a general comment. What you do with Bishop does not apply to me 
because I only use a Linux computer. So the above remarks are for the 
sake of other deaf users, not me. But it still hits a tender nerve.

Thanks.

Tom Sullivan
