[osis-core] Minimal OSIS text for user doc

[Patrick Durusau]

Greetings,

As promised, working on the user documentation! Won't be able to spend 
all day but will do what I can.

Suggest using the following example cribbed from Todd as the minimal 
OSIS document:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<osis xmlns="http://www.bibletechnologies.net/2003/OSIS/namespace" 
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" 
xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.bibletechnologies.net/2003/OSIS/namespace 
osisCore.2.0.xsd">
	<osisText osisIDWork="thisWork" osisRefWork="bible" xml:lang="en-US">
		<header>
			<work osisWork="thisWork">
				<title>Contemporary English Version</title>
				<type type="OSIS">Bible</type>
				<identifier type="OSIS">Bible.en.CEV.1995</identifier>
				<rights type="x-copyright">Copyright 1995 American Bible 
Society</rights>
				<scope>Esth</scope>
				<refSystem>Bible</refSystem>
			</work>
			<work osisWork="bible">
				<type type="OSIS">Bible</type>
				<refSystem>Bible</refSystem>
			</work>
		</header>
	<div type="section" scope="Esth.1.1-Esth.1.22">
				<title>Queen Vashti Disobeys King Xerxes</title>
				<p>
<verse sID="Esth.1.1-Esth.1.2" osisID="Esth.1.1 Esth.1.2" n="1-2"/>King 
Xerxes of Persia lived in his capital city of Susa and ruled one hundred 
twenty-seven provinces from India to Ethiopia.<verse 
eID="Esth.1.1-Esth.1.2"/>
<verse sID="Esth.1.3" osisID="Esth.1.3"/>During the third year of his 
rule, Xerxes gave a big dinner for all his officials and officers. The 
governors and leaders of the provinces were also invited, and even the 
commanders of the Persian and Median armies came.<verse eID="Esth.1.3"/>
<verse sID="Esth.1.4" osisID="Esth.1.4"/>For one hundred eighty days he 
showed off his wealth and spent a lot of money to impress his guests 
with the greatness of his kingdom.<verse eID="Esth.1.4"/>
</p>
</div>
</osisText>
</osis>

Stripped out all the really detailed markup (don't want to frighten them 
off right at first and is only 4 verses so probably fair use from the 
standpoint of the CEV folks. ;-)

Thinking that I will use smaller snippets of this to walk people through 
the header element. (BTW, this validates as a small OSIS document.)

I won't have time to finish the OSIS Users Manual today (the OSIS CD and 
some ISO stuff I have promised out will be interfereing) but anticipate 
doing revisions that will be available for downloading both at the SBL 
meeting as well as a final version sometime, hopefully late this year.

To that end, where I insert more than 4-5 lines for an example, I will 
be inserting (contributed by: name) in the text and will have a list of 
contributors at the end.

As the manual grows and we cover more topics, I am sure we will be 
inserting more material neither Steve nor I have authored and I would 
like to give everyone credit for their contributions.

Hope everyone is having a great day!

Patrick
