Well, OpenLP 1.9.5 (aka 2.0 beta 1) has been out for 3 weeks, and the
|
||
|
|
feedback we've been getting from folks has been positive. Thanks to more
|
||
|
|
people using the beta we've picked up a few bugs we hadn't caught yet,
|
||
|
|
and I think that so far we've been more productive than ever. Part of
|
||
|
|
the reason is because we have a new core developer.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
| Welcome to Andreas
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Just before the release of OpenLP 1.9.5 we welcomed Andreas on to the
|
||
|
|
team of core developers. He has proven his worth a number of times
|
||
|
|
already, is a very capable developer, and has even started making steps
|
||
|
|
toward providing support for OpenLP in German.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Welcome Andreas, we are really glad to have you on the team!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
New Manual
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
We also have a new reference manual for OpenLP 2.0. Two of the guys on
|
||
|
|
our team have been working hard on documenting every feature in OpenLP
|
||
|
|
to bring you a manual that covers literally every aspect of OpenLP. If
|
||
|
|
you're good at writing, and you'd like to help out, please let us know.
|
||
|
|
Neither of these guys are developers, so don't think that you need to
|
||
|
|
know how to develop to write the manual.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
| BitTorrent Downloads
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A recent addition to our downloads are torrent files for both the
|
||
|
|
Windows and the Mac OS X downloads, so that you can now also download
|
||
|
|
them via BitTorrent. You can find the files on the download page.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Marketing
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Don't forget to make sure you tell others about us! As an open source
|
||
|
|
project we have no money to market OpenLP, so we rely heavily on word of
|
||
|
|
mouth. If you're on some forums and the forum rules allow it, post a
|
||
|
|
review about OpenLP. Let us know about it, we'd love to read what you've
|
||
|
|
written.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
We also have a Worldwide Usage page where you can point out that your
|
||
|
|
church uses OpenLP. Oh, and remember, we're on Facebook and Twitter too.
