Thanks for implementing the comments for anonymous users! I really hate to be forced into signing up to a site that I'll only casually be frequenting (i.e. most blog sites I visit).
You seem to be getting on with Drupal pretty well and I'm glad that a non-engineer (as you put it) has managed to get things pretty much worked out.
Let me add some response to a couple of your points:
9) Only the module maintainer can change code in CVS so you can't directly do that. The done thing is to create a patch and submit it to the issue queue. You can create a patch in terminal by issuing the following command:
This will create a patch on your desktop that you can submit so it may be easily applied by the contrib maintainer.
D) Not sure if you have installed it yet but I believe Views is what you're after here. Views is an amazing module that allows the creation of custom lists of content. Check it out!
