I'm hoping the SGML encoding issue won't take a long time to resolve, but
I may be wrong.

I am reluctant to make any ScrollKeeper release, even an unstable
development release, which breaks backward compatibility with SGML docs.
Inevitably people will download it and break their system.  Or even worse=
,
somebody may ship it as an update or in their distribution and break lots
of people's systems.

I guess if we have a reason to ship a development version like this, we
could give it a scary release name with "alpha" in the version.
