You mention the "CVS tree" quite a bit without defining it. It is clear 
from the context that you are talking about the source code, but I am not 
at all sure of the further implications of the phrase. Is a short 
explanation warranted?

Otherwise, the section was quite clear, even to someone who has never been 
involved in a major programming effort (me).
