<div style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 14px;">Dear Fr Cyrille,</div>

</div>
<div style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 14px;"><a
href="https://gitlab.com" title="gitlab.com"
moz-do-not-send="true">gitlab.com</a> is simply the <u>wrong
place</u> to host our <b>KJV</b> source text!</div>
<div style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 14px;"><br>
</div>
<div style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 14px;">If necessary, it
should be hosted <b>in-house</b> under <a

CrossWire volunteers have access.</div>
<div style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 14px;"><br>
</div>
<div style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 14px;"><b>Important</b>:
The KJV module is an <u>exception</u> to our usual practice of
taking source text from a publicly accessible website or third
party supplier. It was always specially developed <b>in-house</b>
from the early days of CrossWire. Much of its development
history is documented in the developer wiki at <span><a

<div style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 14px;"><span><br>
</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 14px;">CrossWire
volunteer <b>DM Smith</b> has long been the prime mover in this
process.</div>
<div style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 14px;">AFAIK, he still
carries the main responsibility for future <b>KJV</b> module
releases.</div>
<div style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 14px;"><br>
</div>
<div style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 14px;"><span
style="font-size: 9pt; line-height: normal;">NB. The related </span><span
style="font-size: 9pt; line-height: normal;"><b
style="line-height: normal;">KJVA</b></span><span
style="font-size: 9pt; line-height: normal;"> module should be

style="font-size: 9pt; line-height: normal;"><b
style="line-height: normal;">KJV</b></span><span
style="font-size: 9pt; line-height: normal;"> module. ie.

style="line-height: normal;">-a</b></span><span
style="font-size: 9pt; line-height: normal;"> option in the
second command line. This implies that the process needs to be
an exception to a semiautomatic module build script that
DomCox now uses for OSIS modules. I helped DM in the run up to
when version <b>2.10</b> was released. At that time, we had
not been making use of any git type environment to keep track
of changes for either the KJV or KJVA module.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 14px;"><br>
</div>
<div style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 14px;"><u>Aside</u>:
The emergency release of <b>KJV</b> version <b>2.10.2</b> was
an exception to the previous process. This was an <i>ad hoc</i>
action that Troy deemed necessary because of the nature of the
issue being fixed.</div>
<div style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 14px;"><br>
</div>
<div style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 14px;">I could add
further observations, but this will need to suffice for now.</div>

Thank you David do put this information on the list so that everyone
can understand the problem. Personally I don't agree with this
restrictive view of KJV treatment but I had submitted to your
decision. Because I don't bring the same importance to this very
particular copyright claimed by the British Crown. The presence of
KJV on wikisource is a proof of this.<br>
However, what I see is that we are still at square one, i.e. nobody
can do anything to improve the module. That's why I gave up, it's
this report of a new error that revives the discussion.<br>
For me if we don't give the tools to the Crosswire community to
improve the module it's just doomed to stay as it is with its
errors.<br>
We could put the text on the right git, it would still be necessary
that you allow other users to work on your text, and that the
modification made in the emergency by Troy is validated in the
current version before making other corrections. The corrections are
extremely simple almost anyone can do it. The facsimile is on
wikisource.<br>

I tried to do this, but since some people say there are
copyrights issues on the KJV, although the full text is on
wikisource which has a very strict copyrights enforcement
policy, I gave up the project.<br>
