Thanks - Troy - for detailed explanation.

I’d already guessed some of the points you explained - but having them set out with reasoned justification settles things in my mind at least.

Best regards,

David

The conversations were noisy and they were flooding sword-devel when sword-devel was trying to have conversations about other things.

Additionally, I was hoping my call for an HTML/CSS/JavaScript designer might prompt an interested individual to improve the look and feel.  I was hoping to pull from the wider audience on sword-devel.  Also, Bishop is the first app using the proposed UnlockInfo .conf entry to improve the user process for unlocking publisher content.

I don't think breaking the conversation out to mobile-devel (which hasn't had a post since 2/2018) is more beneficial than having it on sword-devel.
