Which Debian or Ubuntu distribution (and what CPU architecture) are you 
looking for a bibledit 3.7 package for?  From the suggested sources.list 
line, I'll guess Jaunty :)

Uploading bibledit_3.7-1~jaunty1 packages to my PPA now...

I have Jaunty packages for both i386 and amd64, and I think I tested 
building it once in a Karmic pbuilder chroot too... and if you use 
Debian, it is already in Debian unstable, and it is currently just one 
dependency (gtkhtml3.14) away from being in Debian testing (squeeze). 
See http://packages.qa.debian.org/b/bibledit.html for details on that.

I didn't know there was such a thing as an SIL package repository... who 
decides what gets put in that repository?  Long term, it is usually 
better that packages get included in the distributions themselves, but 
if there is an urgent need, maybe those who manage the SIL repository 
can be asked to add current bibledit packages to it?
