Yes, it works. But only because I fixed it (ParseVerseList using a simple
VerseKey, rather than getting it from the module).

Yes, that is why 1.6.0 should (in my opinion) ship only with extra v11n's as
a test (i.e. rename Leningrad to LeningradTest to avoid breaking in future
with new modules), or not ship with any new ones at all. It will take a
while to update frontends to do this.

And I still would like a mapping between v11n's... There are a number of
places where this is important, I think. It would be good if the first
"stable" version of av11n had mapping...

God Bless,
Ben
