I know we were going to put Giron in the "automatically processed straight from XML like the big bible corpora" bucket, but with the sentence splitting and chapter divisions required, I think it will be easier to do both in GitDox. Chapter divisions are easier to see in the spreadsheet mode, and you can use the entity mode to do the sentence-splitting. So I'm making the executive decision to put this stuff in GitDox. @amir-zeldes @EarlyCodices

Fine by me - 11 docs should still be manageable, I'd be more worried for really big stuff. Keep in mind that one potential advantage of "XML Bible mode" is that tokenization is done fresh each time as tokenizers improve, so if you're correcting any segmentation manually, GD can make more sense (or you could introduce pipes in the XML repo). If you want fresh re-tokenization each release, you should not put things in GD - that would be the other main reason not to choose it.

I don't think we are checking segmentation manually, but this is a good point. We have lots to do so I'll ponder this. They already have pipes from Lydia's work. I found when I was working on other documents for the full-auto-from-xml mode, validation was a real pain for reasons I don't fully remember and probably repressed.
