All Given the interest here that Geoff's talk has generated, I would be happy to collaborate with him on a Macromedia-development focussed CVS HOWTO. We could cover topics such as installation, getting your code into CVS for the first time, using CVS on a daily basis, tagging/branching/merging, etc. It would end up being a relatively substantial document and frankly, it'd be universally applicable, and not really focussed on our little part of the universe, but we could at least couch it in terms all of you would be familiar with.
No guarantees on delivery time, given our collective vast free time...
