+biblesync (a bible software shared navigation protocol library)
+
+BibleSync is a shared navigation protocol using LAN multicast.
+It is useful for a single person when running Bible programs on
+multiple machines or devices, all of which you wish to navigate
+through the Bible together, or for a group working closely together,
+such as translators. Also, it has a "lecture" mode, where a speaker's
+Bible program induces the audience's programs to follow along.
+
+Some History.
+Up until and including xiphos 4.0.0 biblesync was included as part of
+the xiphos source code. It has been removed from the source in xiphos 4.0.1
+and set to be a general library for any bible software that wants to use
+shared navigation. It doesn't have it's own web site yet, so is on the
+gnomesword source site.
+biblesync is a requirement for xiphos 4.0.1 or higher.
