Release of LibSword 1.7
|
 |
Posted 7:50AM on Saturday, December 21, 2013 by Refdoc
Many thanks to the many contributors : Sword 1.7 was released in early October 2013.
What is new in 1.7? Many new versifications and locale, large scale refactoring and standardisation of many methods and the addition of filters for standard compliant XHTML output are probably the most important improvements.
Improved output in various formats, handling of bibliographic data and addition of new transports to the install manager are other changes.
We will from now on maintain both a maintenance branch for 1.7 and a development branch for new features. |
