Quite true.  We had to leave one error in the book to prove we're human :-)

On a serious note, if you should happen to find any other errors in the
book (we knew this one), please mail them to bugs@cbmvax.  That way, they'll
end up in the proper place where they may be found when time comes to fix
and revise.  It helps if you use a subject line which is descriptive, such as
"1.3 RKM Libs&Devs MutualExclude/SpecialInfo mistake", and not "I found
a mistake".
