Active support projects
Project Name | Brief Description | Status | Pumpkin Holder | Ants |
---|---|---|---|---|
Wycliffe SWORDWeb Deployment | Setup and deploy SWORDWeb on WBT server. Automate grabbing of new OSIS files from a repository and generating sword modules from such, which are web published with SWORDWeb. | Planning, some initial proof of concept deployment of SWORDWeb, but not final env. | scribe | |
Alternate Versifications | Support alternate versifications for Bibles in SWORD. Plan: Produce a Bible using treekey{testament/book/ch/vs} structure, create VerseTreeKey subclass of VerseKey which has a TreeKey as its data source. Add entry to module.conf: KeyType=VerseTreeKey | Code for VerseKey Bibles implemented and released; requirements gathering and basic impl. for VerseTreeKey | scribe | |
UBS Translator Upload Facility | Provide an upload page on CrossWire.org for UBS translators to upload their in-progress OSIS files, which will then be converted with automation to sword modules and web published via a separate instance of SWORDWeb. | Planning. | ||
SWORDWeb merge of passagestudy.jsp and parallelstudy.jsp | There is no real reason for having separate pages for single- / multi-column display. Merge any functionality left on passagestudy.jsp, which parallel study.jsp does not already support and then make one display page. Next step will be to merge displaylevel2 displays of genbooks with this new, common display page. | Planning. Have been slowly adding functionality to paralleldisplay.jsp for some time now. | ||
NASB Lexicons | Convert Lockman Lexicon data to complete NASB module for Lockman to sell | Both the Greek and Hebrew have been encoded into TEI. These are now going through internal review. After that it will be made into a module for further internal review. | DM Smith | |
Map Module | Create a new module type, map, that indexes images as a collection of tuples (image, place name, xy-coord). This could use Troy's papyrus tagger and map images. Add Sword support for dynamically identifying place names in displayed text according to the "place name" vocabulary of a map module. | Requirements gathering | ||
Prepare for i18n translation of SWORDWeb and CrossWire HTML | Before translation of the website and webtools can occur, the actual content need to be updated | Moved sword website into svn. Still need to move crosswire into svn. | ghellings, gmarine |
New front-end applications
Use this section to announce work begun for developing new SWORD or JSword based front-ends. They should be mentioned here even if they are only at the proof of concept stage, so that may prevent duplication of effort.
Android platform
- Troy has begun work on developing an Android front-end.
Java ME platform
- Go Bible is not a SWORD front-end per se. Nevertheless it is CrossWire's first project for the Java ME platform. Project leader is David Haslam.
Windows Mobile platform
- SlideBible is a new front-end project for Windows Mobile, created by Konstantin Maslyuk. It is available for early use and cooperative development. Current state - you can read SWORD Bible modules, though so far only for touch screen models. Visit the SWORD Dev mailing list if you would like to help.
