<p>Dear team,<br>
</p>
<p>You all know we've been working on Cordova bindings for SWORD
for quite some time now. We now have a simple reader written
in JavaScript which will run unchanged on both Android and
iOS.Bishop includes an InstallMgr to auto-discover remote
installation sources and let a user install SWORD content.<br>
</p>
<p>I've kept the development code name "Bishop", my favorite
android (from Aliens) and almost appropriate for a Bible app
:) I've also tacked on our boring moniker from our Windows
app, "Bishop: The SWORD Project for Android". Long name but
should get more search hits.<br>
</p>
<div>Basically, Bishop's UI has 2 basic modes:<br>
</div>
<div> <br>
</div>
<blockquote>
<div><b>Reader</b>: which simply shows 1 chapter of up to 3
Bibles in parallel.<br>
</div>
<div> <b>Verse</b> <b>Study</b>: When in reader mode, as the
user scrolls, one verse will always be active, when "Verse
Study" is chosen from the menu, the user can then drill down
into that active verse. Verse Study has 4 tools:<b><br>
</b> </div>
<blockquote>
<div><b>Word</b> <b>Study</b>: shows the verse broken down
word by word, showing the original Greek or Hebrew behind
each word, along with a simple definition.<b><br>
Commentary</b>: shows all installed commentary for that
verse.</div>
<div> <b>Witness</b> <b>Study</b>: shows all available
ancient New Testament manuscript witnesses which attest to
the current verse.<br>
</div>
<div> <b>Variant</b> <b>Study</b>: shows all variant
between the manuscript witnesses for the current verse.<br>
</div>
</blockquote>
</blockquote>
<div>Other features include very basic bookmarks and search.
The Android release has an initial attempt at BibleSync
support to send your current verse out to all your friends
running Bishop on the same network (thanks Karl!).<br>
</div>
<div> <br>
</div>
<div> The initial goal of Bishop was to be the thinnest client
on top of the bindings, as an example and thus uses no 3rd
party libraries, save jQuery. Now that the initial release is
completed and can serve as an example, we're free to improve
the mobile user interface if anyone feels called to join the
team and give it a shot.<br>
</div>
<div> <br>
</div>
<div> Installation locations follow. It's best to let Bishop
install its basic set of SWORD modules upon first run, so it
has a minimal set of tools it can use to operate. It will
prompt you to do this when you first launch the application
and it finds no modules installed.<br>
</div>
<div> <br>
</div>
<div> Android users can install the app from: <br>

</p>
<p>iPhone users will need to send me their UDID for testing
while we try to get through the Apple Store approval process.
I haven't even tried yet as I don't have much hope that it is
"pretty" enough for them, but the download link for the iPhone
binary is here:<br>

<p>The code can be had from:<br>

</p>
<p>Please let us know what you think if you are a user, and
offer your suggestions from a usability perspective.<br>
</p>
<p>If you are a developer, please offer comments and suggest
features you have a desire and are willing to add.<br>
</p>
<p>Please give us a great rating so we show up in a search in
the Play Store and let others know. I think we have some
unique feature that other app don't offer and I've been using
Bishop as my morning reader for a while now. The default
fullscreen text without clutter is pleasant. <br>
</p>
<p>Christ's best for you!<br>
