Hi,

I'm going to be slightly blunt here. The authors of the book have, 
repeatedly, ask you to connect with them through different channels and 
contribute your fixes to the Github repository that was set up. Though I 
appreciate your review of the book, the way you've handled the situation is 
not exactly exemplary.

I'm also wondering what you're trying to achieve here. I'm sure you realise 
that most people won't be reading your posts on the mailing lists before 
buying the book. From reading your comments most of them are not about 
errors with regard to Puppet but with (perceived) errors in grammar, style 
or formatting. Only a few are actually about code or command errors and a 
few about terminology that's used before it's been explained or other 
issues that could potentially hamper the users understanding.
