Hi
Since the whole "foo-first" thing confuses me, I thought I'd post all the
remaining issues here and get them resolved. I'll defer to both Ingo and Jon on
these mind-bending issues! ;-)

(er) 17tdoi:42: feet first -> feet-first [??]

matter of minutes, you have drowned."

Does anyone have any comments on how often I should post outstanding issues, and
how many per post? I intend to focus on the easier ones first (the on to vs.
onto thing exists in Books 8-17, 19-28, GS1-4, and FW2-4; I don't see the point
in posting each and every one of those occurrences in these posts! ;-) ),
sometimes at random, sometimes "themed" such as this batch, and at other times
all related to one book with a view to fixing all outstanding issues.
