What I want are two very small sites, with expected very low traffic,  
with https enabled for easy, but secure, editing of content via a web- 
browser: with probably just two editors. I really don't think that  
this would be classed as medium sized.

In fact, one reason why I posed the questions is that as my sites are  
so small, perhaps larger sites would need the IP addresses more than  
me: I would feel a bit guilty if my sites were given them and someone  
else lost out. But I'm not sure how the IP addressed are organized /  
decided upon in HCoop...
