I am the author of CzeCSP conversion into OSIS XML format. The problem
is that I don’t have in my source texts anything to hang on other than a
free text. I have absolutely no clue who to do the parsing in XSLT
(which is what I used for XML-to-XML conversion) and I will have a
really hard time to parse this free text in Python (but I may try
eventually; it has been
https://luther.ceplovi.cz/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=180 for some time).

However, I don't see anything in
http://img.forministry.com/7/7B/7BB51FB8-84B3-4FF3-939ED473FA90A632/DOC/OSIS2_1UserManual_06March2006_-_with_O%27Donnell_edits.PDF which would indicate that content of <note> should be anything else than a plain text, so I am afraid it is a bug libsword if it requires something else than it has right to expect.

Of course it just documents how difficult it is to require from all
modules to produce perfect parseable code in the conent of <note>.

Blessings,
