Just wondering if there are any "rumors" about what's going to be in Logos 10?
Like maybe ZipScript... or Personal Books in mobile... or improvements on the Search?

I’m typing on my phone so not best suited for a search. Do you know how to search the forums via Google? Threads generally start up a bit more than a year out on speculation, requests, etc.
As for personal books, the last official word is that the feature did not end up being used as expected (personal books written by the user) and future development is shelved.
and future development is shelved.
This is the second time you've mentioned this which I apparently missed (or forgot). Do you know where this was mentioned? I know they cancelled the originally promised store aspect -- much to my annoyance.

Perhaps JT is referring to this post by Bob Pritchett from 2016: https://community.logos.com/forums/p/126859/848584.aspx#848584
Presuming 2022 is 2016 (little change), I suspect low use has much to do with not easy to do. I did PBs for a while. I'd bet an integrated PDF reader would solve most people's needs in Logos. I've had one in my Bible software, along with other document readers. Very handy.
If that is so, I get to laugh at myself - I remembered the post solely in respect to its killing of the promised store.[8-|]

The post by Bob was one.
Here is one where Bradley mentioned that personal books were less than... personal.

Here is one (see two posts by Bradley) which mention PDF's and personal books

I have long desired personal books on mobile, but it is clear that FL has determined the feature is against their best interest. In that light, all hope should be tempered. Better to be surprised and delighted (if they change their minds) than disillusioned and disappointed.
Most of my PB's are things like lectionaries, sanctoral calendars, or self-generated materials. I knew that FL was not expanding the use of PB's because of the ways they were being used but I thought they were maintaining it for the essential functions it provides. Your posts made me question that assumption.
I assume that everyone who knows such things has signed an NDA or ten.
I think were looking at 41 1/2 days, with a probability of approx 40%. And 72 days, with a probability of approx 35%. The remainder unknown. Then, in the meantime, a library expansion sale,.
Logos Daily on Facebook said “Something very big is coming…” If I remember correctly, Logos 7 released in late August (8/24/2016 to be exact). So maybe Monday the Logos website will be unavailable due to a “big announcement,” as they always do. Or maybe early September, no one really knows 😂 Anyway, it’ll be here before we know it.

Still might not be a new Logos release, though.
Logos Daily "very big" comment had nothing to do with the release of the next version of Logos. It has to do with consolidating his user base to a new platform.
