Hi Paulo Welcome to AON! We are very happy to support all software developers,
and have forums full of volunteers ready to help with testing & advice. With
regards to use of text, the user MUST download the text from the AON site
themselves - unfortunately the license doesn't allow the text to be packaged
with third party products directly. As you are working with manipulated
versions, you will need a staff account. Jon will be very happy to create one
of these for you as soon as time permits. you will then be able to host your
edited versions in your staff account and the user can download them from
there. Your account comes with webspace and templates you can use for this
project. You are welcome to include a link in your product to "download books
from the AON site" and you should also look to include a copy of the license
with your product (or an easy link to the license page.) You can find more
details about developing for AON here:
http://www.projectaon.org/en/Sanctum/DeveloperFAQ The forums can be found here:
http://projectaon.proboards.com/index.cgi? Please do shout if you have further
questions We look forward to seeing further progress on your application. Given
you have created XML files, it will be worth you looking at the Common
Navigation File forums - there is a long-term plan to host all the navigation
information from the books in XML files - would your XML files be a good basis
for this? One final note - any software releated to AON must be offered free.
It is of course OK to suggest donations, but not to charge for the product
directly. Hope this helps, James
