I *think* that any document at CCEL that is available as ThML is also 
available as OSIS.  However, they are OSIS 1.1, so they might need a 
little updating to conform to OSIS 2.0.  I'm not sure how well xml2gbs 
will be able to process it either, since the style of markup is a little 
different from my style (on which xml2gbs is based).
