Bible commentaries, file formats, etc.

Hi,

[I realize these questions really belong on the regular Drupal Bible forum, but the forum is currently broken (gives CAPTCHA-related errors) and it's impossible to post anything there, so I am posting this here.]

I am currently researching technology options for a website I am starting to build, and came across this module. I am trying to determine if the Drupal Bible module would be a good fit for what I am trying to do, so I have a couple of questions:

1. I noticed you currently have some functionality for displaying links to relevant commentaries at the bottom of the page. What I would like to have is a Wiki-style functionality where users would be able to submit quotes (in my case, from classical Jewish and patristic sources) that are relevant to the verse/passage being read. These submissions will have several required metadata fields (e.g. author, full reference, source of quote, etc.) Eventually I will also have these submissions moderated, but that's a separate issue. Is this functionality something that you are thinking of adding some time in the future? And if not, how difficult would it be to integrate this functionality with your module? Also, do you know of any other modules that may be helpful in implementing this?

2. I noticed that you are using your own format for Bible files (.bc), rather than one of the common XML-based formats, such as OSIS or ThML. Is there a reason you decided against using those? There is a lot of content available in those formats, and texts can be easily converted from one XML format to another. Also, using an XML-based format would allow the users of your module much greater control over formating and presentation, not to mention other standard XML benefits (e.g., turning a site into a Web service and building a mobile client for it).

Thanks in advance for your answers.
