[sword-devel] [bt-devel] SWORD 1.7 - Strongs numbers

[Daniel Owens]

There is a disambiguation problem for Strongs numbers. This may be a 
markup question, but the engine cannot connect H0001 and 00001. The 
current Strong's TEI file has the former but all other modules have the 
latter. As a consequence the BDBGlosses_Strongs does not currently work 
with any Bible module. It would be nice if the engine could work this 
connection out. Otherwise all modules need to conform to the same standard.
