[sword-devel] milestone element, osisRef attribute

Thu Sep 13 12:13:57 MST 2018

I also have found many discrepancies between the OSIS manual, the XSD, 
and the wiki. I pointed out some of these quite awhile back without 
response. Also, not all of the features used in the flagship KJV are 
documented all that well.

Trial and error was necessary to bring SwordHammer up to the first edition.

Given the obvious resource and volunteer time limitations, I do not have 
any good suggestions, except to code around the limitations for now and 
be patient.

Great News!
God created you, owns you and gave you commands to obey.
You have disobeyed God - as your conscience very well attests to you.
God's holiness and justice compel Him to punish you in Hell.
Jesus Christ became Man, was crucified, buried and rose from the dead
as a substitute for all who trust in Him, redeeming them from Hell.
If you repent (turn from your sin) and believe (trust) in Jesus Christ,
you will go to Heaven. Otherwise you will go to Hell.
Warning! Good works are a result, not cause, of saving trust.
