AMEN. As a published author, I can attest that it was very frustrating to see a couple of errors after publication in one of my books. But errata are a fact of life -- we're none of us perfect, and it's important that corrections be shared so others don't waste time and energy struggling with the same issues. One of the consolations I took away from others' pointing out my errors was that it showed they were reading the book! which is flattering when you think about it. For us to be studying a book so intently that we find errors, and to be making lace from a pattern book, proves that the author has produced something worthwhile, something the community is finding useful. Armed with this realization, I think most authors find errata useful in that second editions can be made that much better by fixing the issues found.
