Dear John,

I'm the author of the French versifications sheme, I'll do my best to to answer 
your questions.

There are actually 3 French versification schemes available in Sword/JSword:
 - Calvin      (Bibles de Genève, Martin, Ostervald...)
 - DarbyFr     (Bible Darby)
 - Segond      (Bibles Segond)

This a fresh addition, so you'll need to work with Sword >= 1.7.903.

No you don't, but if you want to, the v11n are described in include/canon_*.h 
files.
The French v11n are named canon_calvin.h, canon_darby.h, canon_segond.h.

There is a small section on the wiki about the French versifications:

I don't think so. I don't do it. Please note that I'm not an expert in OSIS 
markup:)

osismod.exe (>= 1.7.903) supports -v11n Calvin|DarbyFr|Segond

You should put (case-sensitive):
Versification=Segond

The following wiki page lists the differences between the KJV and the Segond. 
https://www.crosswire.org/wiki/V11n-fr-Segond
Although there are a lot differences mainly in Job, Psalms..., there are none 
in the book of Joel. I guess there is maybe something wrong in your encoding, 
not specifically the annotateref tag.


Hoping that it will help you
