There's a project entry in garage, which is where the files should be. I haven't checked to see if they have been added for a while.

If you want to make the additions in a portable way you'll probably need support in Sword itself, which is in C++ IIRC. This is obviously the strength and weakness of using an external engine: you get free support for all engine features but adding new ones is probably hackish. The first step would be to approach the sword devs on the crosswire mailing list and ask what the current options are to support those features. If no good way is supported then perhaps they'll be willing to add one (finally), or at least describe how to go about it.

I wish i had more time for development as i already bit off more than i can chew for the moment and really would like to see katana become a killer reader...

Plugin Idea: Supporting of Audio Bible Files

Features:
- import audio Bibles (could be any audio file)
- able to bookmark - meaning mark one's place
- simple audio controls
- tag
- attach to text references
- share clip (30sec???) with someone via MMS, IM, email, or web service

* The idea for this comes from this post from long, long ago and a request that someone just asked me about this audio bible.

It would make for a really interesting addition, and pretty much follow the idea that a person would have a Bible app that confirms to how they read, versus conforming to how the Bible reader wants you to read.

It is off-topic. Why don't you start another thread?

Totally a good idea, and off-topic as well...
Its worth a new thread, and a reopening on my part of conversations with X3 and Convenant Eyes.

You can also place your request for that feature for the N900 (and any other devices) on this post at MMM.

Just visited Katana page and was wondering what stage the development is. Presently interested in testing the application and waiting for the first alpha stage

I've been working working on Katana on and off all along. Part of what has been slowing it down is that the Qt framework was under a lot of churn for a while - things that had worked suddenly didn't, creating the need for nasty workarounds, etc. Now that Qt 4.6 has stabilized and is getting ready to ship with PR 1.2, I've had more chance to focus on real development.

I'm working on the last potentially contentious UI piece. Once that's done (hopefully in the next couple of days), I'll release another alpha to get feedback. I've been using Katana extensively myself, so I've had a chance to fix a lot of the edge cases and weird bugs.

After the next alpha, the only major piece of functionality left is downloading texts over the internet.
