Talk to Troy about "subtype" and "x-preverse". The former is just
wrong. The latter is a hack. It was fixed (from the module side) and
then unfixed (probably to remain broken in perpetuity in all of these
commercial texts) until some unknown future date.
I should also mention that 'subtype="x-preverse"' is inserted by
osis2mod, not the document encoder himself. It's a proprietary
extension hack.
I understand the hack. There have been lots of posts concerning it. I
have run across it before. The reason for the post is that I am trying
to unwind the KJV2003 module to what it should have been. This reminder
and the previous post really help.
What's the chance that the hack could be changed to produce valid OSIS?
With xml being case sensitive subtype should be subType.
Also type="section" should be type="x-section", following the attribute
extension mechanism.
My preference is for the "verse" that is returned from an OSIS module be
something more like:
<title>A title</title>
<verse osisID="b.c.v" sID="x"/>A verse<verse eID="x"/>
Such that the cumulative appending of all the verses in a chapter would
produce the content of the chapter exactly as given in the original.
I think as we get more non-trivial OSIS modules the content that stands
between verses will become necessary to preserve.
