It would not bother me at all if Sword instituted a policy/mechanism that every module had to be in valid well-formed OSIS 1.5, anything else wouldn't even display.
That certainly works for me. At the moment, we're not targeting user-created documents because of the difficulty in creating valid OSIS documents. I think that's outside the scope of Sword-proper. If Simon or others want to work on OSIS IDEs that will generate valid/best practice-conformant OSIS, our toolchain for importing these documents will be pretty user-friendly. Once it becomes an issue, it won't be very difficult to embed an OSIS to Sword module converter into InstallMgr or such.
Please don't take my words as a criticism of what you are doing or have done. I only wanted to suggest that more eyes and fingers the project has on board the better. Intentionally driving people away seems counterproductive.
Don, I know how much work you've done for Sword in the past and how much you are doing right now, so I realize your motives are good and never thought of taking offense or considering your statements ingracious or personal attacks. And I certainly didn't mean to cause any personal offense on my part. Except towards Troy, maybe, because he's a communist pushing his Marxist/Stallmanist GNU/Linux ideology on the rest of us.
