Should I re-enable section titles
(including mid-verse section titles) in the OSIS I feed to
osis2mod? I recall discussions about things not working right, but
don't recall the details of what failed how in which front ends.

Osis2mod handles mid-verse section titles properly. The problem is
elsewhere. They work just fine in Bible Desktop and other JSword
applications.
Regarding more v11n, this has nothing to do with
osis2mod. osis2mod merely knows what SWORD makes available and
allows that.

The lack of documentation
agreement on what the default versification is
doesn't surprise me, but it should be fixed.
It also doesn't affect me, because I never call
osis2mod without specifying the versification to
use, so I never use the default.
This is a pretty minor point compared to the
architectural issue of not really being able to
optimally represent the world's Bibles with the
current set of hard-coded versifications.
An even bigger point is not being able to handle
mid-verse section titles. Those are VERY common. (I
just have all section titles disabled temporarily on
the eBible.org
repository because of this.)
Priorities.

The de facto observation that recent builds of osis2mod make NRSV the default
v11n raises several questions:
When was this change sneaked in?
Was there a formal agreement among developers?
Was there any announcement?
Why was this not mentioned on the Developers' wiki?
Which other SWORD utilities have been changed (if any)?
How come the change was not reflected in the SYNTAX HELP ? (as Michael H
reports)
IMHO, this change was unwarranted.
It's very galling that such a significant change could be made without
adequate considerations of the implications.
Those who have scripts for module builds may well have omitted the -v KJV
switch for osis2mod.
It was wrong to assume that for such module developers it would be left to
chance to discover that their scripts were no longer working correctly.
Best regards,
David
