[sword-devel] Cross references withing general book??

[Martin Gruner]

Thanks for the information, Chris. However, I guess that we may want to 
release BibleTime 1.3 first before we move to OSIS which may introduce new 
bugs into our code. After that, and as the work on the *->OSIS filters 
progresses, we will certainly use OSIS in BibleTime, though the module could 
be created in OSIS now.
