Greg, OSIS is the best choice for genbooks. In fact, on the wiki ( wiki.crosswire.org) it's the only option listed for genbooks in the howto section. I do understand that OSIS for scripture doesn't look like OSIS for genbooks, and tools designed to convert scripture may not be well suited to convert non-scripture into OSIS. Which is why i'm seeking all the tabular information from the spec.
What's your recommendation for genbooks that contain a lot of scripture references (and I want to make those live links).
