Costas, 600th forum entry and TW 3 UPDATE

Post by **csterg** » Wed Mar 12, 2008 2:40 pm

Thank you so much for your prayers, they are very helpful, be sure of that.
I am touched with your encouragement; maybe in the future i will share some details of the actual work being done (i realized a few days ago that it's been 3 yrs since the release of version 2, that's a long time, i should better hurry up!)

As much as we are looking forward to the new version's release, your welbeing goes way beyond that of the program.

God bless you and your family Costas.

I just had to register to this forum just for the sake to ask the question:

"How long will you keep us in suspense?" (John 10:24) If you have the version ready tell us plainly.

Any hope for this month?

This program is like an addiction

Let me be honest: i planned to have it the weekend that just passed. But i didn't make it. Family, secular job, church and other more urgent things got in the way. I cannot control that. Believe me i am more anxious than you and i am doing my best (also, i need to sleep

)
Please, keep this work in your prayers so that God takes over this!
Sorry for keeping you in suspense, i really don't mean to do that,
Costas

aaaahhhh!!! tricked once again. I think we need a forum titled "Announcements of Pending Versions and Updates". Every time I see there has been a post in this forum my hopes of a new release go way up only to be dashed by the cruel reality that fate has dealt once again.

We'd better meditate on Hebrews 10:35-37; Romans 8:25 and Romans 5:3-5

and, at the same time, pray for Costas, that our Lord shall renew strength not only to him but also to his family.

Yes.. take the time you need for it.
The v3 Beta is already a very good bible-program. I think there is no need to hurry..

If you need some help, maybe with webdesigning, administrating or something like that i would be glad to help you.

blessings,
Simon

I had it on my heard to give you a little inside into TW.

TW is a FREE Bible software that will remain FREE for every user. Nevertheless it's not free for Costas (and those who work for it).
Costas is spending a GIANT amount of time into TW. Remember, he's not being financed by any church or christian organisation and is therefore providing you with an ad free Bible software for which you'd have to spend many bugs for. A person before suggested that Costas should go on vacation. Good idea, but that means that TW is stopped.

It has been proven that when it comes to sponsoring an event, the group that does most of the donation are not big companies, but individuals with their 10- 15€. They make the difference. (BTW: You can see this in the present elections in the USA right now.) -> You can make a difference. The better the financial support is, the more Costas can focus on the programming, the faster new versions can be released. It is nice and encouraging to receive all your "Thank yous", but it doesn't help to speed up the development of the software.

If you have 100€ each month for your personal use, consider supporting TW just one month with what ever you think is ok, even if it's 5€. So you're not paying for the software, but in what you give, you actively support TW.

(I myself will not see any of this money.)

Greetings in the Lord with 2. Corinthians 9, 6-7
