[sword-devel] Bishop to-do list

[Fr Cyrille]

lHello Friends,
I may be saying something heresy, but I'll try anyway. To begin with, 
I'd like to thank Troy and Tuomas for their beautiful apps, as well as 
Tobias, for all their hard work.
Personally, I use Bishop and Andbible, but I intend to test Esra as well.
That's what I'm thinking about. It's a lot of work to code, and there 
aren't many of you. Wouldn't it be useful to merge the projects?
Here's my case in point. I use Anbible for almost everything, except for 
what bishop offers that Andbible doesn't have:

  * Daily devotional
  * the parallel passage of the Gospels with the modules of Eusebius of
    Caesarea, a really good tool.
  *   And even if I don't use it, but access to the original manuscripts
    is a great tool too.

So there are three things I think Andbible lacks to be perfect, which 
I've just described.
So would it be possible, rather than creating a new program, to simply 
(it may not be simple at all, pardon me for being a philistine) 
integrate these strengths of bishop into Andbible, and thus have an 
ultra-complete app?

Just a question/suggestion...
