Unicode support for Menologion 3.0 forthcoming

The alpha test version of the MENOLOGION 3.0 (http://www.orthodox.cn/software/) has incorporated a couple of new key features already:

* Display daily readings from the Lives of Saints as translated into English from the original Russian by Fr Stephen Janos.

* Display user choice of Bible versions for daily lectionary reading,
including the ability to import Bible modules from http://unbound.biola.edu.

Development for Unicode support for multilingual capability and  Importing of the Chinese translation of the Prologue from Ohrid and the Troparia/Kontakia hymns will be forthcoming.

If you are interested in participating in our beta testing program or to localize the Menologion into your particular language, please contact the author at michael.purcell @ mindspring.com. Enthusiastic response has already been received from volunteers to localize the Menologion into Romanian and French. You will also need to use a localization tool called poEdit, downloadable from poedit.org .
