+1.

I note in passing that in the errrata it states each entry has

[[[

  *   A unique entry number
  *   The date it was added to the errata page.
  *   The section referred to.
  *   A description of the problem and correction if applicable.
  *   A rationale for making the change (not required for editorial errata).

]]]

Unfortunately, this isn't true. Please let's make sure that in future it is.

It would also be good to have a link to the relevant discussion, probably generally starting from the resolution, given that looking there should provide the pointers back to the fuller discussion...

cheers
