Will many, most, all of the Sword Modules eventually become available in an OSIS 1.5 form, xml text not binary? If so then all other comments below are without need.

We will never switch our main distribution format to a non-binary format. We also /probably/ won't make most of our material available in OSIS format. But we will have two exporters: mod2osis (already available) and Diaspora (the next version supports OSIS export).

I understand that, it isn't necessary for Sword as Sword already understand Sword modules. :)


Will mod2osis be updated for 1.5?

If so, if mod2osis creates a nice OSIS 1.5 xml text, then I would be quite satisfied with that.

I know I can find some of the texts in pre-Sword form on other sites. But some of them I haven't found. For example the TSK. I don't see a source mentioned in the Sword docs and CCEL doesn't show it. (at least not that I've found)

Not all modules come from single documents. Some come from thousands of documents on websites. I don't know where TSK came from, but there are three websites that have the same content listed as the top three sites when searching on "Treasure of Scriptural Knowledge".

When I search Google for "Treasury of Scripture Knowledge" I get lots of hits but haven't found any which are sources of a text file(s) for the data. But rather many booksellers, software vendors, (many of which are OLB), online accessable TSKs, etc. Not to say such isn't burried in the search results.


Are any of the texts available somewhere in their original ThMl/GBF text based forms? Old ISOs or something? The newer the better (theoretically) as no need to correct already corrected data.

Aside from the few that come from CCEL or bible.org, no.
Okay.

Thanks for putting up with my questions. Despite my questions I greatly appreciate the Sword project and do use Sword.

Thanks for all the hard work all Sword contributers put into this effort.
