Over Christmas we’ve been having some Scripture trouble at the breviary… The problems stem from one of the initial decisions I made about the project. Rather than selecting out all of the readings individually, I decided to install entire Bibles, then to install a parsing mechanism that would determine which passages to select. This gives the breviary a tremendous amount of flexibility, because it opens up the option of putting in new translations and new lectionaries without have to go and cut and paste a whole new edition.
Unfortunately, it also means working out how to deal with various complications in a lectionary with likes to leave out verses in the middle of a selection.
Too, the interactions between the kalendar codes, the lectionary codes, and the Bible tables is one of the reasons why I say the site is still in beta.
Today’s problem has been solved and I’m working on the lingering issues…
And it all was worth it for the anitiphons today…
