On Monday, worked on issue #286, which would have us break BIBL1.xml into smaller files as we have done in other repos, then reconstitute it at build time. I wrote and tested the code to do this, but there are other processes that currently depend on BIBL1.xml which are going to need to be updated as well. It may prove safer not to reunite it, and instead to work with a collection of files instead.
On Thursday, had a couple of discussions on tickets with NV, and committed a refactor on a minor rendering bug which we didn’t believe should fix the problem, but it did; this suggests that there’s a Saxon XPath parsing problem (although it’s always possible that my original code was too tortuous and I was missing an obvious error).
