That should not be necessary, but I will add it to eBible.org Sword modules with the next update.

Odd, since I thought I started with the same source.

Non-significant white space variation is an artifact of ambiguities in OSIS interpretation.

>>>         3. Both the ebible and KJV module display quotation marks where the Words of Jesus transitions occur.  This is not present in the source text, but is apparently a quirk of OSIS (not sure if it's in the OSIS, or the conf file.) However, the KJVA module does NOT contain these quotations which is more appropriate. Yet it lists the same source as the KJV module.

Any quotation marks displayed in the KJV indicate a bug in OSIS interpretation, since they all contain the marker="" attribute.

The eBible.org KJV is taken straight from DM's source, at least for the 66 books of the protocanon.

I don't think there is any significant waste of resources going on, here. There is a lot of cooperation and coordination, though.

But I have. ;-)

It is highly automated, with periodic regeneration of the modules whether they need it or not when Haiola gets updated. The actual text of the KJV in all of its output formats is the same as the text of DM's master source.
