Today I finally gave in and brought the cello inside, warmed it with a heat-gun, brushed on hot water, slathered on hot hide-glue and clamped the ribs home, one at a time. Good glue squeeze-out all around. I think the joints will be good.
I also spent some time whittling on that lion-head scroll I began a while back, made progress on a fiddle-repair for a friend, and repaired a non-functioning front porch light.
So the day wasn't wasted, though I did spend an inordinate amount of time on my website, trying to pat it into shape so that Google will recognize it and folks can find it. :-)
Next I will trim the excess rib length from each corner and plane them square, parallel and smooth. Then it will be time for linings.
