	Today I unlinked this page from the CrossWire front page and created a static copy. I think this will be teh better solution as long as we keep an eye on major changes. All improvements should go into here and will from time to time get copied over. The risk obviously is that we again keep forgetting about updating. But then we can change that again.

			== Is SWORD the same as e-Sword? ==

			I get asked this question more often than any others when I start talking about CrossWire. It therefore certainly qualifies to go in the '''F'''AQ. [[User:David Haslam\|David Haslam]] 10:33, 9 January 2010 (UTC)

	Every now and then someone asks if it's possible to publish a work in our format. It has been asked at least about translations and commentaries. We could give a short positive answer in FAQ and give some links to helpful pages. It is so-and-so if this an end user or developer question but mostly the people who ask this seem not to be developers. --[[User:Eelik\|Eelik]] 08:00, 10 October 2007 (MDT)		Every now and then someone asks if it's possible to publish a work in our format.
