If possible, I think that KJV2006 should be part of the starter kit for
1.5.8. (This may not happen since I have finished with the NSIS
installer and Troy is eager to create a release.)
I have large reservations about releasing this text with the next
BibleCS installer (NO NEW FUNCTIONALITY! :) )
Actually, there are specific reasons. I'm fairly confident the multiple
strongs numbers on a word will mess up many of our frontends, including
BibleCS. I need to update our filters and entry attributes handlers to
correctly parse this stuff. I think there is code in there to do it,
but it's not likely it works correctly. I'd bet we haven't tested
headings (turning them on and off) and other things like this in
BibleCS. Maybe I'm completely wrong. If I get a few "I'm an avid
BibleCS user and I've thoroughly tested the new KJV2003 module which DM
has posted," then I'd be happy to reconsider, but I'm not willing to
wait for 'a couple days' for that (only because a couple days always
turns into weeks/months/years...).
I'd be happy to package up a new BibleCS installer with the new KJV2003
module THE VERY NEXT DAY after the release, if it really does get raving
reviews then and we're confident we have it working well. I'd even be
willing to release and hold off announcing the release for a little
while if we think we're close. This meets the pressing need: a very
regular download is really old and holding up new module releases.
This brings up another question. What are we going to call this? In my
mind this is simply a markup cleanup of the KJV2003 project. I would
have named it KJV2003 rev 3.0. The only reason for even not originally
calling it rev X of CrossWire's KJV module is because the KJV2003
project really was a project to add creative content and create a new
work. I hope adding creative content is the antithesis of what DM's
goals are right now :)
-Troy.
