Be sure to check out our current projects page to see how you might use your skills here at CrossWire.

Please look at our general volunteering page, the bugs database and/or assist end-users in the forums.

Also, we have pages describing the purpose of our work and the CrossWire Bible Society itself.

You can even come and chat with SWORD developers on IRC: #sword on FreeNode.

Newcomers should take note of the difference between SWORD as a back-end, and the SWORD Project as a front-end application for Windows.

A Wiki is a place to share documentation and development information.

New user account requests are now moderated.
Anyone who has been a member for at least 4 days can edit a wiki once they have logged in.
If you are new to Wikis, consult the User's Guide for information on using the wiki software.
MediaWiki FAQ
You may experiment with Wiki using our Sandbox.
Another way to navigate the Wiki is to click on Special pages in the toolbox, and then select Categories, or just go directly to Category:Categories.
