Hi all,

IMHO, as soon as printing is implemented, BT will be ready to be released as 
1.0.  At the present rate, it will have to wash dishes before it gets 
released as 1.0!  ;-)
Seriously, it would be a morale boost for all involved, as well as present it 
to book licencers and potential distributors as a mature, capable product 
(which it will be very soon), rather than a fly-by-night hack.  Isn't Sword 
up to 1.5.1?  BT is 1.0 quality software, and needs to be released as such.

Other issues:
Is Bibletime supposed to stay resident in memory after it is closed?  It 
seems to be occupying ~1.5 megs without being open.

Importing bookmarks doesn't work very well.  I created a "database" of the 
parables of Jesus categorized, so I had sometimes 5 nested levels of folders. 
 When I imported it, it lost some, and didn't get the nesting right at all.  

Who named the Bibletime project?  Torsten Uhlmann?  Joachim?

God bless,
Jeff
