Did you look at the USFM texts on GitHub 
(https://github.com/openenglishbible/Open-English-Bible)? It 
seems to be better than what we currently have in OEB module.  
For example, I was trying to use HTML of Psalms generated by 
diatheke from our OEB module (trying to make my HTML5 Psalms 
reader multilingual) and I had to switch to ESV, because it was 
missing many verses (which were hunked together in one verse), 
tons of nonsensical elements (like <div>s, etc.). Most of these 
problems seem to be fixed in the GitHub text.

Just one anecdote story.
