e-Sword 9.x Conversion Tools Available: Success Mixed
Posted by Chuck Grantham on May 3, 2009
The good folk at eSword Users report there are now two publicly available tools for converting user created resources to eSword 9.x format. Early reports are the conversion utilities are not converting a small number of modules yet, unfortunately.
The stubborn modules include the commentary notes for the NET Bible, my primary bible and commentary, so I personally will be holding off upgrading a while longer. The folk at bible dot org will likely be updating their NET Bible software at some point.
Also at eSword Users they have created sections in their Forums for discussion of eSword 9.x and conversions. They have also posted a notice that the site will be offline next weekend (May 9-10) as they restructure eSword Users dot org to support both the 9.x and earlier eSword editions. This includes uploading 9.x conversions of as many of their 1400+ resources as they can manage.
If you aren’t a member of eSword Users, now is a great time to join.
