In both the KJV and its genetic descendant, the NASB, every single
chapter, without exception, begins a new paragraph.

Version 2.0 of the OSIS (Open Scripture Information Standard) spec
should be available any day, and I have been fighting for a few new
mechanisms so that I might be able to completely encode your NASB data
in the OSIS specification.
I have a few questions where your comments might help me succeed in
getting these tags added:
1) To quote your data from Matthew 8:34-9:2
{{40:8}}34 And behold<MG2400>, the whole<MG3956> city<MG4172>
came<MG1831> out to meet<MG5222> Jesus<MG2424>; and when they
saw<MG3708> Him, <RA>they implored<MG3870> Him to leave<MG3327> their
region<MG3725>.
CHAPTER 9
<SH>A Paralytic Healed
{{40:9}}1 Getting<MG1684> into a boat<MG4143>, Jesus crossed<MG1276>
over<MG1276> {the sea} and came<MG2064> to <RA>His own<MG2398> city<MG4172>.
<PM>{{40:9}}2 <RA>And they brought<MG4374> to Him a
<RB>paralytic<MG3885> lying<MG906> on a bed<MG2825b>. Seeing<MG3708>
their faith<MG4102>, Jesus<MG2424> said<MG3004> to the
paralytic<MG3885>, <RS>``<RC>Take<MG2293> courage<MG2293>,
<N1>son<MG5043>; <RD>your sins<MG266> are forgiven<MG863>."<RT>
There is a <PM> (paragraph break mark) after verse 1 in chapter 9. I
would guess that this means that your editors disagreed with Jerome and
think the paragraph ending Chapter 8 continues into the first verse of
Chapter 9, which seems to me to be a fine conclusion. Can you confirm
that 9:1 belongs with the paragraph at the end of 8? (or any similar
case where the NASB does not feel that a new paragraph begins at each
chapter mark).

1. Yes, our translators thought the new paragraph should be at verse 2.
I know there are more situations like this but I do not have a list.
