For those that are interested, I found that the KDE hex editor is called
"Okteta", and I found two interesting articles that deal with reverse
engineering binary formats:

Hi Folks,

I just thought I'd drop a line to this list and give you all a quick run-down
of the current state of my OpenLP project.

For those of you who don't know what OpenLP is, it's an open source Church
presentation program, which allows you to project song lyrics, Bible verses,
custom slides, images, videos using a data projector as a second monitor.

Michael,

Does this allow someone to send an e-mail to the newsletter? I've used the
Simplenews module, but you have to create newsletter nodes.

We're using the Audio module for our sermons.

Hi guys,

At the prompting of a friend, I have put a wiki up on the site. You can get
to the wiki via the "wiki" link at the top of the site, or by going to this
link: http://christianoss.org/wiki/main-page. Please note that you need
to be a user on the site and logged in to edit pages.

Please feel free to use the wiki to write down any useful open source apps
you found, or how to get something up and running, or any other tips and
tricks you know of that we can use in Churches and other Christian
organisations.
