I forgot to add that the osis2latex.xsl is somewhat inspired by OSISToUSFM.1-6.xsl (Snowfallsoftware), it gave me a good starting point and saved a little time of reading XSLT docs. Nevertheless, OSISToUSFM.xsl is way more complicated and there is still much to learn from :)
LaTeX code is derived from WEB bible published on ebible.org at http://ebible.org/web/links.htm (see webtex.zip) and it uses mainly the same commands. I mostly tinkered with the layout. I think it would be worthwhile to provide good documentation and default files about how to produce nice printable output from OSIS (or SWORD module). This would make it more beneficial to keep OSIS or USFM as the core of the translation. I think not all Bible agencies are aware of the possibilities of such method. Although bibletechnologies.net mentions why OSIS should be preferred core format, it does not provide methods to fully utilize it.
