Earlier Book of Mormon Editions
Posted: Sat Aug 05, 2017 10:34 pm
Hey, folks. I've been wondering about using Gospel Library to read earlier editions of the Book of Mormon.
I don't know if this is already a feature, but I'd recommend implementing it as a version control system that can manipulate a standard edition of the Book of Mormon to become previous editions. The changes to the Book of Mormon have been minimal, so it would be more efficient to allow users to download the Book of Mormon, then download the changes necessary to construct an earlier edition. Although, I believe it's all text anyways, so there mustn't be much worry about the efficiency.
By the by, I'm unfamiliar with these forums, so I don't know what sort of community to expect from a religious tech group. What sort of technical know-how and jargon can I expect this audience to grasp?
