Rework Versification as part of a burrito

[jag3773]

Currently, versification is a standalone flavor but it should be built into at least the following flavortypes:

• Scripture
• Gloss
• parascriptural

[jtauber]

Does this mean shipping a .vrs file inside each SB that references to a versification system rather than just referring to it by name?

[FoolRunning]

Most projects have customized their versification in some way so it makes sense that they should be included with the project.

[jag3773]

Ideally, the current project's versification could be provided as a delta against a known "standard" versification.

I think @jonathanrobie and versification group was going to define how this happens (maybe they have already?).

For non-Scripture types, I think we just need to reference the versification scheme being used. For example, a set of translation notes shouldn't be able to customize a versification scheme, but it may be keyed to a BCV scheme and the tool just needs to know which one that is.

For example, a set of translation notes shouldn't be able to customize a versification scheme, but it may be keyed to a BCV scheme and the tool just needs to know which one that is.

But that versification scheme would probably be a customized version belonging to a project, would it not? If we just reference it "by name", then that means we need to have a name (or some designation) for every customized versification that exists.

[jonathanrobie]

To emulate the status quo, I think we have two reasonable options. 1. Each project's versification is a delta from "org", and is contained as a versification file in a burrito, or 2. We support other standard versifications like "eng" by name and require them to be available in a public place (e.g. the Copenhagen Alliance site). A project's versification can also be defined as a delta from one of these schemes. In practice, many projects use the versification of an existing gateway language translation, which suggests we might also want to be able to specify diffs from: 3. A specific revision of a specific resource I would suggest that we support all three.

@jtauber to prep and then talk to @jonathanrobie about possible work needed in versification group.

[jtauber]

See #243 for discussion for @jonathanrobie to take to versification group.

[jtauber]

As discussed last week and in #243, all deltas will be expressed against org and no other versification system. They may have originally been expressed as delta to some other versification system but, for the purposes of generating a burrito, the delta against org is calculated and that is all that can be in a burrito.

[jonathanrobie]

Yes, I agree.

I think this is now going to be done as a new role for an ingredient which is a delta from the org versification to the versification used in the burrito. In which case I think #248 will cover it and this can be closed. But is there anything else that needs to be done? Is a role on an ingredient sufficient?

[jtauber]

as now covered by #248, this can be closed.
