I'll do my best to take care of that in the next few days. Apologies for that. Updating LDD (which isn't really "the LWN book" though it's hosted here) will take a little longer. I'd like to find a way to produce an LDD4 with quality at least as good as LDD3, but which doesn't fill the world with immediately-obsolete bricks of dead trees. Still working on it... jon
