ABU 1.3

ABU 1.2

NT only, conf reflects this, appears complete features: WoC

There is a WoC display problem.

See Talk:Modules_in_the_beta_repository#ABU for a discussion.

None Displays fine in GS, MS, SW, BibleCS, and BD but for WoC problem in these front ends [this problem is a code or frontend error--will not fix--Osk].
KJC (reissued 2008-06-28) NT only, conf reflects this none none displays fine in GS, BibleCS, BD, SW
Leeser (reissued 2008-06-28) OT only, conf reflects this
none none displays fine in GS, BibleCS, BD, SW, MS ready
Noyes (reissued 2008-06-28) Partial OT (Job-Mal), complete NT.
none needs correction of conf regarding use of italic font displays fine in GS, BibleCS, BD, SW, MS ready after fixing of conf
Worsleys NT only, conf reflects this There is a markup problem concerning the WoC and transitive changes are badly marked. Example:

Matt.5.3-4 (formated for readability)

<q who="Jesus">
  Blessed
</q>
<hi type="italic">
  are
</hi>
the poor in spirit; for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
<q who="Jesus">
  Blessed
</q>
<hi type="italic">
  are
</hi>
they that mourn; for they shall be comforted.
  • The <hi type="italic">are</hi> is used to mark a transitive change and probably should be <transChange type="added">are</transChange>
  • After the italic the rest of the verse is not quoted.
  • There are too many quote marks. Adding marker="" will quiet it down. If the entire quote needs to be quoted, mark it's beginning and end with the milestoned version of without the who="Jesus".

This WoC problem is in all tested apps: GS, MS, BD, SW and BibleCS.


I'm having trouble finding ANY source for this text other than Zefania, which has the structural flaws noted above. We may have to simply strip the red-lettered words. Osk 21:29, 28 June 2008 (MDT)

FreCrampon
Bugs already known, do not test
Whole Bible

Wrt Versification issues please check FreCrampon


None Displays fine in BD, GS, MS, SW and BibleCS needs fixing
FreJND Whole Bible, appears complete features: FN and Xref work fine

Skc (maintainer)> See FreJND about markup, it must probably be added in .conf, but where?

DMS: I'd suggest a textual comment in the About.

Headings in Psalms are all "canonical" and not subject to "heading" filter. If these are the only headings, should the conf still have Feature=OSISHeading? Displays fine in BD, in GS occ UTF8 problem - Mal 1:9 and Matt1:20 create odd characters (star in front of SEIGNEUR or DIEU (skc> this is intentional)), SW displays junk before DIEU in Mal 1:9 (looks like an engine problem handling <divineName>), MS doesn't display these verses at all, BibleCS ok ready
FreMartin
Bugs already known, do not test.
Whole Bible (missing Acts.19.41 Rom.3.31 Rom.8.39 2Cor.13.14) Some verses are united: Acts 19:40-41, Rom 3:22-23, Rom 8:20-21, 2Cor 13:12-13, altering the regular versification scheme. A check against a printed Bible is needed to confirm this specific scheme. Conf has UTF-8 encoding problems. Displays fine in GS, BD, MS, SW and BibleCS Ready after conf fixing

German Bibles

Note: Versification of German Bibles in the old Testament is in stretches extremely different from the KJV. Both chapters and verses are of different length. As a result a lot of KJV verses, particularly at chapter ends are empty and other chapter ends are overloaded. Particular problems exist in the small prophets: Joel has 4 chapters and Malachi only 3 in original versification. As a result following verses appear empty when KJV versification is imposed.

Wycliffe Bibles

Global problem:

  • All the conf's have a typo: "an SIL font" rather than "a SIL font"
  • Many modules have a problem with notes tied to headers. This may not be a module problem, but an osis2mod problem or a SWORD engine problem. For example, using SW to view Matt 5:21, there is a note marker that stands before the verse number and the heading appears after the verse number. Perhaps as a side effect, there is way too much whitespace (blank lines) surrounding the note. And the note have no content.

Which should we use?
GenBook links like Bible:VUL:Gen.1.1 do not work in BD. This is a BD bug. At the same time though I think that it is inappropriate to prescribe which Bible (Vulgata) is linked to, given that this genBook is in English Refdoc

If an author cites a particular work, as Aquinas is likely to have done, this is appropriate. More significantly, since Aquinas is working from Bibles with a different reference system from Bible.NRSVA, it's important to identify that somehow so that we have the potential to do reference system translation.Osk 21:47, 28 June 2008 (MDT)

Application Bugs Found During Testing

During testing pre-existing bugs may be found in an application.

MS

  • In GenBooks: click on a leaf, then click on (About). (About) does not show. Sometimes nothing happens, other times another entry's content shows.
  • In About w/ UTF-8 characters, e.g. GerLutherpredigten, garbage is shown because it tries to interpret it as "Latin-1".
  • Does not handle WoC when milestoned quotes are used: Words of Christ

BD

  • Does not handle foot-notes in anything but Bibles.
  • Does not handle WoC when milestoned quotes are used: Words of Christ
  • links leading to a specific Bible module do not work

GS

  • Does not handle WoC when milestoned quotes are used: Words of Christ

BibleCS

  • Does not handle UTF-8 in Description when listing names of modules.
  • In About w/ UTF-8 characters, e.g. GerLutherpredigten, garbage is shown because it tries to interpret it as "Latin-1".
  • In About w/ \uxxxxx? RTF codes, e.g. TurNTB, ? is shown.
    • Well, that's the expected behavior if the font lacks the encoded character (and so, not a software or a module bug but a font deficiency if anything).-Osk
  • Does not handle WoC when milestoned quotes are used and transChange is in the WoC:
    Words <transChange type="added">of</transChange> Christ
    The words following <transChange> are not highlighted.
  • Links to Bible references in Daily devotions do not work
