Request for review of a package description
Please CC me - I'm not subscribed, thanks =)
Hello all
After my package xiphos (formally known as GnomeSword) has hit testing
I straight away got a bug report about poor quality descriptions of
the packages.
I hope me and the bug submitter gave descriptions a bit of love but I
would like to ask for your expert opinion:
Package: xiphos
Description: environment for Bible reading, study, and research
Xiphos is Bible study software for GNOME. It is a digital text reader with
bookmarks and full text search. One of the exclusive reader features is
parallel view of alternative and translated versions of the same text.
.
In addition it allows you to keep personal per-verse notes. For larger
commentaries there is also a dedicated rich-text study pad. The personal
commentary supports spell checking and can also be searched.

Xiphos is based on The SWORD Project by the CrossWire Bible Society, a
framework for providing tools useful for studying the Bible and additional
information like commentaries, dictionaries and other texts using your
