[jsword-devel] Dead code?

[Joe Walker]

java/sword[test] is a set of compatibility APIs that allow people used 
to the C++ API to use JSword without too much re-learning.
That's the theory at least. I don't currently see a huge demand for it, 
so I've resolved to myself that I'll put more time into it just as soon 
as someone want to use it.

java/map[test] is an idea I had a while ago. The ser search engine does 
a best match, and you get find some interesting references out simply by 
typing verses from the Bible into the best matcher.
So the mapper goes through each verse in the Bible one by one and types 
each one into the best-matcher to make a huge "attraction-map" that 
knows how different verses are related to each other. This is then 
aggragated on a chapter by chapter basis and plotted to give you a map 
of how Biblical verses are related to each other. There are various 
rules to define how the layout works. That's the idea at least - I have 
managed to get a decent map out of it, but it is tricky.

At some stage I think we should split jsword out into separate projects. 
I've vaguely thought that the best time would be just after  the next 
milestone, and at the same time that we give the Swing GUI a new name.
