[sword-devel] OEB information about update?

[oebible]

Hi Michael
I'm looking through the USFM - I don't need an full list, but it would be helpful if you could give me a chapter and verse example of the two types of USFM markup errors. If I can see one example I can find and fix the rest.
Thanks,
Russell

Hello, Russell and all!
I have updated the Open English Bible, U. S. and Commonwealth spelling editions, on eBible.org. The USFM supplied is good enough that I could process it mostly automatically, starting with the git repository. I did have to preprocess the USFM to correct two USFM nonconformities: (1) Every chapter must start with some sort of paragraph marker. If no new paragraph is intended, \nb must be specified. Usually, \p is appropriate, unless it is poetry, then \q1 might be. (2) \b cannot contain any text, but only signifies a blank line. Another paragraph style (usually \p but could be \q1 or \m or ...) should follow it. I fixed both by inserting \p in the "holes" in the markup. If that isn't the intended fix, please fix it in the repo, and let me know so I can run the process again.
As far as removing outdated modules from Crosswire Main where a more up-to-date version exists on eBible.org, I agree that would be a good thing. Either that, or keep up-to-date in the Crosswire Main repository. The latter is more work, and that work might be better spent in improving discoverability of the modules across repositories in the front ends.

Hi
I have had at least one person raise a translation issue with me which we had already fixed but which hadn't made its way to the Crosswire site so I support the idea of making Michael's repo the only one.
Best

I am not sure if you've maybe done this, but don't confuse
Michael Johnson's eBible repo with eSword. I hope and believe
MPJ rigorously follows copyright laws for his eBible repo.
Oh, I did! I am profoundly sorry for that, Michael.
In such case, I am absolutely for removing OEB modules (both of
them) from Crosswire repos.
Best,
Matěj
