[jsword-devel] Build update

[DM Smith]

The next things that I am going to work on are the <verse> markup 
problem in WLS, the problem with the GerElb bible that Timo found
and I am trying to understand the difference in SwordConstants.getIndex
and BibleInfo.verseOrdinal (they are very different in their return 
values. For example, Gen 1.1 returns 3 for getIndex and 1 for 
verseOrdinal. Matt 1.1 returns 3 for getIndex and some very large number 
for getOrdinal, which does not start over for the New Testament. I am 
hoping that there is some repeating pattern where I can use the tables 
in BibleInfo and get rid of them in SwordConstants.)

So, I can wait until you apply the patch. I am eager to see your changes 
and to get the nightly build working again.

Joe, I would still like your opinion on where to place the functionality 
of handling the extra verse markup. I like Chris' suggestion of checking 
the OSISVersion in the conf, but so far nothing has used that tag. It 
dawned on me that sooner or later that would be a necessary field as 
OSIS 1.5 and OSIS 2.0 are different enough that they may require 
different filters. (The software checks all conf files for tags it does 
not expect and complains about them.) So I think that I need to have 
fall back code, just in case.

WRT the spam, I am fine with rejecting any mail from non-subscribers. 
Perhaps with a reply that the only way to post is to subscribe. (I have 
tried to post w/o being a member to other lists and I have gotten this 
kind of message.)
