	It also helps to point out that there should be no need to backup the 
sandbox directories.  This, however, requires that the developers be 
trained to perform intermediary checkins of work in progress, which 
itself requires training in branch-and-merge development for larger 
changes (or just to permit checking in still broken files), so it's 
not the simplest thing.  Nonethteless, things do seem to work the best 
that way...
