Number of total possible verses is versification-specific

[Enkidu93]

When extracting, a message is logged that writes the number of verses extracted out of 41899. 41899 is the maximum number of verses possible in the Original versification, but it is not the maximum for other versifications. An improvement on this message might be to make this message tailored to the specific versification of the project being extracted.

In silnlp, we always want to extract a project to the Original versification. Are there cases where we extract to other versifications?

Yes, we will always extract against the Original versification, so the number of lines ought to be 41899, but the ceiling on the number verses is dependent on the versification of the project. The warning makes it sound like a complete project ought to have 41899 verses, but an English Bible actually has a maximum of 38939 verses. It might just be a matter of changing the wording. All I was thinking was that in the context of verses, it might be more helpful to see the per-versification max - e.g., if you extract a full, published English Bible and it has 38939 verses and you see this warning, you might think something is missing. It's just a little nit - whatever is most helpful to see.

Ok, I see. That makes sense.
