The section about '''milestones''' states, "There are a couple of instances where the milestoned version of <chapter> must be used. eg: when the paragraph is spanning over a chapter." IMHO, it would be helpful to cite both such instances, and give examples of Bible versions where this occurs.

| + | I gave the example of the Sermon on the Mount having a quote that spans several chapters. Osk removed it. One can naturally start the quote in chapter 5 and artificially end it at the end of 5, only to artificially start at the beginning of chapter 6 and also artificially end it at the end of the same chapter and thus to artificially start it at the beginning of chapter 7 and finally ending it at the natural place in chapter 7. This is unnecessary and current osis2mod does not require it. Just have the start quote in Matt 5 and the end in Matt 7, using milestoned chapters in between. Once milestoned chapters are used anywhere, OSIS "requires" that they are used everywhere. If quotes are not marked up, then this example, of course, does not pertain.--[[User:Dmsmith|Dmsmith]] 01:18, 24 April 2009 (UTC) | ||

Display outside <verse>
Dowens just added the following comment: "Also, a quirk of the SWORD compilation process is that the only kind of content which reliably displays outside of <verse> elements are titles."
If this was the case, it may no longer be the case for osis2mod. I'm not familiar with a specific instance where this has been a problem, since I believe we maintain everything except <verse> elements themselves. That being said, if there is an issue, my guess would be that it is a frontend and/or filter issue--not an issue with the compilation process. Probably this needs some more investigation (and for bugs to be filed as appropriate). --Osk 00:50, 29 November 2008 (UTC)
Milestoned version of <chapter>
The section about milestones states, "There are a couple of instances where the milestoned version of <chapter> must be used. eg: when the paragraph is spanning over a chapter." IMHO, it would be helpful to cite both such instances, and give examples of Bible versions where this occurs. David Haslam 12:15, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
