Hi William,
let me answer these questions of yours.
I didn't use yet the functionality Frobby provides, apart from "toying
a bit around", and I do not expect to use it seriously (although in
number theory, one never knows ...). I also know only Bjarke (the
author) himself as a one to use it. That said, I still vote +1! Bjarke
has made a very good case w.r.t. the functionality in light of the
"inclusion procedure" noted somewhere (in the Wiki? on the Web site?
in the docu? I always mix these up.). And "formally", he's gone more
than 90% of the way, and has a good pace.
What is more, I see the "Frobby migrates to Sage" story as a success
story, both the Frobby project and the Sage project might be proud of.

Cheers,
Georg
