So is it the plan that these locked modules will reside on CrossWire? 
(gerhof2002, esv, nasb, ...)

Please do document it. JSword validates the conf for any deviations from 
the published norm, producing lots of diagnostics and rejecting 
everything "key" in the file that is not known.

BTW, when is the wiki going to be back up. That's where most of the 
documentation for it is.
