Karsten might have approved one months ago, but I had not as yet 
followed up. I have not yet learned to use SSL however am likely to do 
so on my Mac over the next couple of months on account of a local 
server being set up on my behalf. Being sensitive to the 
DevelopmentGuidelines at the wiki, I *would* need need to overcome a 
fear of messing something up especially if it were in the main trunk.

Is there protection available through a requirement for "administrator" 
level approval that I would lack or, if main trunk write access comes 
with the account,  would I instead "check in" to something like 
test-area/sql/

Is "commenting" applicable to the "check-in" phase, or only to the 
"commit"? Does the CVS application prompt for these comments on an 
interactive basis, for each file, at the time of the attempted 
checkin/commit?
