Av11n modules should include the "MinimumVersion" in their conf 
corresponding to the SWORD engine version where its v11n was first 
supported. Front ends normally use MinimumVersion to only allow 
installation of compatible modules.

So, building modules with brand new v11ns means they shouldn't appear as 
installable in a particular front-end until that front-end has been 
upgraded to the MinimumVersion SWORD engine. But, of course it also 
means the module has the correct versification.

Emptyvss reports 4 empty verses from 2Tim.3.14 to 2.Tim.3.17, certainly a glitch in the digitization process, the 4 verses, although present in the printed Bible, are not in the source file.
