Hi Asad,

I vote for your definition.  

That is what SDB was for me, a solution for existing problem:
- summary of bug fix in bugzilla, and link where to pick up patch, or
- workaround until bug is fixed
- small fixes of default configuration which is not a bug, but needed to run 
some application

Though, IMHO SDB should not be edited at will. 
It has to be dependable source of information, it should be protected. 

Everyone has enough space on wiki to write articles, and when they are good 
quality and fit in the SDB concept, than it is easy to include them in SDB.
