Thank you all for the input. 1) I have no reservations about giving away source code. I can upload the source code tomorrow, but it will take me time to read through and become familiar with entire GNU GPL (I am a slow reader :)
2) I see there are several projects listed at crosswire.org under the umbrella of the sword project. Would it be possible to add this application to that ? I have no problems conforming to your rules. (I am willing to make whatever changes necessary) Theoretically, all sword modules should work with eBible. Currently I have only made available a few modules available for download, since the copyright and distribution policies for other modules was unclear to me. Under the umbrella of sword project, users of eBible will have access to ALL modules that the sword project has to offer. Thanks for your patience while responding my million questions :) mmital ----- Original Message ----- From: "Eeli Kaikkonen" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "SWORD Developers' Collaboration Forum" <sword-devel@crosswire.org> Sent: Monday, September 17, 2007 4:19 AM Subject: Re: [sword-devel] Releasing application under sword GNUpubliclicense > On Mon, 17 Sep 2007, Troy A.
