Ahh, looks like those were your tests, UserID 89 is your account, I just 
mixed up the ID's because the first account I did assure was yours... ;)
So I confirm, there seems to be no problem here.

And I now also checked all(?) the other occasions to accept the CCA 
(certificate issuning, adding domains, adding mail addresses, ...), 
though rather superficially. All those create records if the function 
fails, but there I'd say it is tolerable, because I'm recording the 
acceptance for me only, not for another person (the Assuree) like during 
an Assurance.
It looks like users_agreements will grow rather quickly, at least one 
record for each issued certificate... :-\

Yes, I did assume so.


Another thing just occured to me, should we add something like a "What's 
this?"- or "How to fill out this form."-link to the Assurance page? It 
could point to a WiKi-page explaining in more detail what each of this 
fields and checkboxes would mean and when to tick them (or not)?
Just an idea which might perhaps reduce traffic for support...
