Thank you very much! Crashes are always a bad thing and it's very good 
to catch them early. The other results looked positive and give us 
confidence.

The other larger part of the program which needs testing is the 
Bookshelf Manager. There are too many things to list right away but some 
of the main points are:

- adding/removing sources
- selecting modules, doing something else, going back to selection...
- trying to do different things with BibleTime while installation is 
going on
- doing things before and after installing and removing - do everything 
work as expected? Is everything updated?
- changing the target paths
- canceling ongoing installation

Especially important is to test installing several modules 
simultaneously. It has caused some crashes and I would like to catch it, 
preferably with debugging information.

If someone testes remote sources it should be remembered that it creates 
load to the server. It would be nice to run a local ftp server for 
testing purposes but I haven't done that.
