v-b-s has a long standing bug that I mean to fix: it should also include
a version of scrollkeeper in the sandbox. I keep forgetting because I
have a couple(!) manually installed, so everything just works for me.
Tinderbox should be doing the same.

One thing that scrollkeeper does not do yet is merge different
databases. And then you extend that to the next step of merging
databases between machines for distributed documentation.But there are
other priorities before that happens.

Anyway, this has wandered way off topic.
