[osis-core] Schema revisions

[Patrick Durusau]

Todd,

On reflection you are probably right about the simple types. Will leave 
them as is.

Was thinking about reworking <div> into a defined complexType to 
simplify the osisDict module. As is, if you invoke the osisDict module 
then all <div> elements allow <entry>. Not necessarily a bad thing and 
perhaps as we discussed earlier, we should simply issue 1.5 without the 
named complexTypes and cover that for August.

Alternative would be to "insert" a new div for dictionary entries in the 
dictionary module and add that to osisText.

Thoughts? Comments?

Cleaning up the office to get ready for next week (lots of stuff to go 
out) so don't expect the next release today. Probably early tomorrow.

Hope everyone is having a great day!

Patrick
