Good.

Yes.

Yes.

However, I won't release until the included new notebook can at least
automatically migrate the entire sagenb.org and have that work fine.
That should be a pretty good test, since that is as crusty and big a
sage notebook install as one can get (with over 14000 users now).
And, as of now, migration does not 100% work (well migration works,
but running uncovered some issue).
