Karl has already written something about this. The THML modules from CCEL are indeed much better marked up and have a lot of features which make them probably more interesting. But I found both Tertullian.org and the module on CCEL only after I had send the CHM link to Karl + Karl had made the modules already. But aside from this initial sequence of events, there is a reason why I would hesitate to get involved with the CCEL texts - The copyright situation of CCEL modules in ThML is very confusing to me. Every single module I downloaded so far has a Public Domain assertion within the souce code. BUT if you read the central CCEL copyright statements you will find that they are asserting copyrights on all XML modules and forbid expressly under punsihment of death and damnation any distribution etc. I would call this contradictory at the least. If you can reconcile it and resolve my confusion I would be extremely grateful . >> btw you may like to split the module into one module per volume since >> it is that big! I think the best solution would be to split it along lines of author +/- book. Also a fair number of these books are actually commentaries. I think it would be really cool to have those texts also encoded as a commentary module. If I have some free time I will try and do so.
