1. Some of the language prefixes seem non-standard.
I have not seen modules with an underscore in them before
e.g. eng_web2015. We don't normally prefix English modules
with the language. If we did then I think the standard,
following SpaRV should be EngWEB2015.
And this seems inconsistent because there is also
engBBE1964 in the eBible repo.
I have been very careful to use standard ISO/Ethnologue 3-character
language codes everywhere. If by nonstandard, you are referring to
not prefixing English modules with the language, then my plea is
that I do so to avoid collisions with other language modules. This
is a BIG repository that will grow bigger, and has more languages
than anyone has ever done before with Sword. NAS could be the
Naasioi language or the New American Standard. Also, I always follow
the Ethnologue convention of lower casing the language code to
differentiate between the current set and an older standard before
ISO adoption.
About the _ in module names: these are allowed per Crosswire module
generation documentation, BUT in the interest of brevity, I'll take
them out. They improve readability, but only if the whole name is
presented. Otherwise, they cause more of the significant characters
to be truncated. This, of course, means that eBible.org repository
stability is going to take a hit over the next 24 hours as I
rebuild, BUT, it should be done in such a way that the repository
will stay online and usable if you refresh immediately before
downloading anything.
2. .mod continuation error
I think that DM has already mentioned this. The backslash
implies the line continues onto the next line. However, the
next line appears blank and probably being removed by the
parser and the following line is a new property. It might be
fixed by ensuring the last line contains characters and no
backslash continuation character.
E.g.
Portions of the Holy Bible in the Tajik language of
Tajikistan\

I think that changing to the following style should fix
this:
CopyrightNotes=Хушхабар\
Portions of the Holy Bible in the Tajik language of
Tajikistan\
<removed several lines>

It seems like this problem occurs in most modules.
THANK YOU, Martin, for explaining this in a way that I understood.
I'm fixing that, now. The bit that was missing in my understanding
was that a continuation to a blank line causes problems.
