Kees,
Thanks for asking Fred for the overview and thanks to Fred for providing it!
I see what may be part of the problem, you want to make references to
different versions by book name? Ah, ok, that makes sense. So that you
can distinguish a reference to Judges(Vaticanus) from Judges(otherwise)?
And you want it to be a standard set of names?
BTW, you say: "The Septuagint contains two versions of Daniel. That
goes for Susanna and Bel and the Dragon too."
Does that mean we need three names for Daniel? (the standard one plus
two for the different versions in the Septuagint?)
Questions:
Does everyone agree that for reference purposes, we need standard names
to refer to the 8 books that Fred has listed?
I think of these as versions, with the exception of Odae, which we would
handle in the header for an OSIS encoded document, but I think he wants
to be able to construct references to particular versions of books.
Normally I would say handle that in the OSIS header but these are going
to be common across all commentaries, etc.
Comments/suggestions?
Hope everyone is having a great day!
Patrick
