I think we should define which features it should have (like voting would be 
nice), then we can look which software is suitable.
As much as I would have liked a Java based forum software there is none (at 
least none that came across our research that we did on new forum software a 
while back) that is really good.

For what it's worth, we're using Vanilla for the OpenLP forums and it works 
well for us. It also has a built in mobile theme which works quite well. Having 
said that, it is written in PHP.

I haven't looked at the forum software we have, but here's a quick and

2013-10-21 Thread Pola Edward
I like the idea too .
I suggest using Joomla CMS and Kunena forum extension .
I may help, but it will be better to find more volunteers because the lack of 
time  

http://www.joomla.org/
http://www.kunena.org/

Also you can find more forum extensions in the following link, Doing so we can 
merge the site, wiki and forum in one software which may make life easier .

I know we've talked about it in the past, but I think we need different forum 
software.
Last time I looked, there was no migration path from what we have to anything.
I'd suggest that we shut down the current forum. Leave it as read-only on a 
different URL. And start fresh.
Just my 2 cents.

2013-10-21 Thread Nic Carter

I like the sound of that.
Especially keeping a read-only copy somewhere so we can link back to it when 
required.

Personally, I'd love to see something that will work nicely on a small screen 
(mobile device?) so that I can migrate more help requests to the forums instead 
of email. I do link to the current forums from within the PS app but it's very 
tricky to use on a mobile phone.

However, given we are all volunteers here and lack time, who is going to 
volunteer to undertake this initiative?


Thanks, ybic
nic...  :)

Re: [sword-devel] Audio Bibles

2013-10-21 Thread David Haslam
And Bible uses the built in TTS in the Android device
(i.e. if the device firmware was compiled with Google's TTS engine to begin
with).

If the user installs the IVONA TTS Engine and a suitable voice,
and configures the device settings to use that instead of the default TTS,
then And Bible will use the current voice from that.

NB. There are some Android devices in which the firmware does not include a
TTS engine.
For some or all of these products, to install Ivona may be of no avail,
because the user settings do not have a section which would enable it to be
selected.

And yes - And Bible's developer Martin Denham) is a member of sword-devel.
But see also the mailing list called mobile-devel.

Japanese audio bible based on DAISY3
http://bible.salterrae.net/kougo/daisy/

To play these bibles,
1. download a DAISY player such as AMIS3 from
   http://www.daisy.org/amis/download
   and install it.
2. download zip archived files from the site above.
   http://bible.salterrae.net/kougo/daisy/
   (e.g. http://bible.salterrae.net/kougo/daisy/kougo_62.zip for JOHN1)
3. unzip them.
4. run the player and then open the ncc.html file in the unzipped
   directory.
