Development of the Open Siddur Project “Siddur Builder” application has now reached the 0.4.4.1 milestone, a pre-alpha, feature-limited demonstration of the technology we’ve developed to compile textual content from our public database. (Barring any serious bugs, with current resources, we anticipate reaching an alpha-quality milestone at v.0.6.4 by the end of 2012.) The user interface is still fairly primitive but the underlying technology and API are fairly advanced. Our 0.4.4.1 “Siddur Builder” functionally demonstrates how we can select XML formatted texts from our public, open source database and compile them into a single web viewable text. This XSL application serves up the Westminster Leningrad Codex (WLC), a digital edition of the earliest complete Masoretic edition of the TaNaKh. The texts are stored in XML and encoded in JLPTEI, our extension to the standard schema for formatting XML texts developed by the Text Encoding Initiative, or TEI The applet converts these XML formatted texts into XHTML for viewing in a web browser.
The code for this demo is open source. For more information on hacking this code, see our wiki
Note that the code running this is a year old. I’m hoping that a new, non-Java based version will come out soon.
If I take a text in Hebrew, copy it and then paste it, it doesn’t work on Word.
Can you be more specific that “it doesn’t work?” How does it fail?

A new version of the transform has been released (0.4.0). Please check if you still have this problem.
