OK. I think I understand that you wish to preserve the changes. I propose 
an alternative that may be a better solution (at least for me). First we 
tag current CVS with gnome-omf-branch, then create a branch from that. 
This branch would preserve the OMF changes made. I then revert the OMF 
file changes in HEAD, tag it GNOME-USER-DOCS-2-0-0 and do a release based 
on that. I then merge in the gnome-omf-branch at a future time when a 
version of scrollkeeper is released that supports the changes. This would 
allow us to continue using HEAD while preserving the changes to the OMF 
format that Eugene has proposed.
