Re: [sword-devel] IMP format for Daily Devotionals?

[Peter Von Kaehne]

I think, Karl, this depends very much on the set of devotions - some of the more liturgical churches will have probably run one aspect in a daily repeated way. I mentioned the Losungen and I think having the monthly one appear the whole month, the yearly one the whole year does make sense. For others, it clearly would not.

 

Maybe the whole thing needs more thought

Putting it in mm.01 implies that it only belongs to the first of the month.
In the 1842 original these headings were at the top of each month's table.

It seems to me that this is a sort of semantic gap between original paper publication and how the content is seen in our apps.

Paper version had a single table for the whole month, at the top of which was a heading. But our devotionals are single-day displays. Forcing a month-representative heading into every day seems...very odd. The fundamental change is just that the unit of display is different.

I'm not sure that asking all apps to look for and prepend mm.00's content onto every single mm.dd's content is a good solution.
