Thanks, Joe!  One change I'd request is that SSL shouldn't be
optional.  A self-signed cert will work for demo/testing purposes, and
there are security concerns that can only be reasonably addressed by
using SSL.  IIRC, there are instructions on creating a self-signed
cert in the installation instructions, no?
