Hi Miles,

You may have heard of Scalar <http://scalar.usc.edu> ... it was designed
specifically for long-form authoring.

It's free and you can set up a new "book" at their cloud <
http://scalar.usc.edu/works>, or you can self host on Reclaim Hosting <
https://reclaimhosting.com>, or set up your own install <
https://github.com/anvc/scalar>.

In addition to comments, it also has Hypothesis <https://hypothes.is> built
in, so you or others can markup your book as a kind of peer review.

Cheers,
Craig

such a tool for a book I'm writing, and wondering if anybody knows of one -
preferably open source and available for self-hosting.
