I'm not sure how we will go about releasing Sword modules as OSIS documents, but I suspect a lot of our stuff will get released. Things that won't get released as OSIS docs would include most copyrighted texts. The very beginnings of our repository are at http://www.bibletechnologieswg.org/osis/docs/ currently but I imagine someone else will run a better site for this sort of thing. There's nothing that the modules themselves will provide that OSIS doesn't, aside from compression and some indexing. The libraries themselves offer features like toggling display of certain items and transliteration, but these are easy to reproduce/unnecessary. --Chris _______________________________________________ sword-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.crosswire.org/mailman/listinfo/sword-devel
