The developement of the Bible plugin is nearing completion and we have mananaged to add some new features, as well as port the current functionality.
Bible Imports
Two new import methods have been added.
Ability to import bibles
... [More]
from Sword bible reader. This functionality will create a bible from a bible downloaded by the sword software. The quality of the import is only as good as the source material but it opens up access to a wide range of bibles in many languages.
Ability to access bibles directly from the Internet. These bibles will be downloaded on demand and cached on the local machine so they can be used whist not connected to the internet.
Bible Presentations.
It is now possible to mix verses and/or versions on the same slide.
For example
A slide could have Matthew 1:1 and Matthew 1:3 on the same slide.
Also a slide could have Matthew 1:1 from the NIV and The Message on the same slide.
Hopefully this will give you an idea of some of the improvements coming up.

With the development of openlp.org 2.0, and a new database format in 2.0, we are (obviously) going to be writing a converter to convert databases from 1.0 format to 2.0 format. A little bit of discussion around the converter in the IRC channel last night gave us a brilliant idea: make the converter web-based.

night gave us a brilliant idea: make the converter web-based.
Having a web-based converter means that we have a central converter that we can control, and things can happen instantly and in one place. This means that the bugs you find will be fixed fairly quickly. It also means that we can add features easily, and you don't have to download yet another application or upgrade your existing application.
As of this moment, I haven't started working on the converter yet, but it will be my main priority over the next while, as we developers need it to migrate our own existing databases!
That's all for now, God bless! [Less]

It's coming along nicely though, we're got most of the ground work done, and

we're now busy working on how to get a plugin to display an item to the screen. Thanks to some hard work for the team, most of the core plugins (the Bibles, Videos, etc) are about 75% done. The next few steps are going to be working on the openlp.org core, getting things to talk to each other nicely and writing the control component (or "widget" as Qt likes to call them). [Less]

They carefully crept into the stable, so as not to wake the baby, and as they entered the stable each one gasped a little. "Here he is, this child will save us!" whispered one of the herdboys at the back of the group to another. A feeling of awe and
... [More]
amazement came over them, and they quietly but excitedly went over to the proud father and shook his hand, and then gave the young mother a hug.
It was a breathtaking moment, right there in the stables. This little baby, born to a poor carpenter and his young wife, would fulfill all the prophecies of countless generations and prophets. The nation had been waiting for this moment for more than 600 years.
As the angel choir withdrew into heaven, the sheepherders talked it over. "Let's get over to Bethlehem as fast as we can and see for ourselves what God has revealed to us." They left, running, and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby lying in the manger. Seeing was believing. They told everyone they met what the angels had said about this child. All who heard the sheepherders were impressed.
