Lars,

My apologies for not responding to this.

I think this is good as you suggest. Maybe a few words about what
"administrative commands" would be, could be helpful. Things coming to
my mind ad-hocish:

  - create/delete a TM collection
  - apply optimization techniques to an existing repository
  ? modification of TM data ????
  - monitor a TM collection, reorganisations, snapshoting

Should we state that TMQL is read-only for the time being?
