I did see that CCAT was relying on recent editions of Rahlfs. I do not 
know if that would cause a problem or not. I will see what I can do to 
find a PD LXX text out there, though the LXXM has lemmatization and 
morphology. It is publicly available, and it would be nice to know for 
sure what the licensing issues may be. I sent a few corrections to CCAT 
after working on a parsing module, but I have not heard back from them.

That would be wonderful! I agree it is distinctive and is fundamental in 
ways that many other versification systems are not.

The current LXX module lacks accents and thus makes it much less useful. I downloaded the CCAT files and was going to make a module myself, but I figured someone out there as a decent OSIS file if it was made into a genbook module. I would be willing to work on the module if someone would send me that OSIS file or even the script that was used to convert it from betacode.
