[osis-core] <work> attributes

[Todd Tillinghast]

Troy,

The way I understand it the <work type="refSystem"> will be used for
OSIS documents that ARE the definition of a reference system.  The
structure of this sort of document is yet to be defined and the <work>
element would not define the reference system within itself only state
the "meta data" of the document that defines the reference system.  

All of the other "declaration" types of documents are also yet to be
defined.

I clarified with Patrick earlier today that when creating a <work>
element to support "osisRef" values that point to an external work the
<work> element would be as follows:
<work osisWork="kjv" type="Bible">
	<refSystem>Bible.KJV</refSystem>
</work>

<work osisWork="bible" type="Bible">
	<refSystem>Bible</refSystem>
</work>


Does this make sense to you?

Do you have a problem with things if they are defined this way?

Todd
