The coverage on Wired and CNET suggests at least *some* of this audience is interested: * http://blog.wired.com/business/2009/02/bookworm-gives.html * http://news.cnet.com/8301-17938_105-10161617-1.html And while we're thrilled to get the attention, this is more about supporting an important standards-based open-source project than about generating buzz.

You can already buy 400+ O'Reilly books that come in an "ebook bundle" of three DRM-free formats (PDF, EPUB, and Kindle-compatible Mobipocket). Several hundred other titles (including our Head First books) are available just as PDFs.

While there's clearly a relation there, Safari is more like a premium cable channel for technical books, where Bookworm is used to manage your personal library of individual ebooks. Certainly I'd expect we'll learn things from Bookworm that can be applied to Safari.

Hello,
We're actually in the middle of a systems overhaul for errata -- to provide faster response, quicker updates to electronic versions of content (current processes are unfortunately still tied to print-based workflow triggers), and a more useful interface for viewing errata. Unfortunately, that's meant temporarily diverting attention from processing current errata submissions. We're working through the backlog, but there will likely be delays for at least a few more weeks. We do track all errata submissions, and will be processing yours shortly.

Thank you,
