Contact info for correcting typographical errors?

As the Pin maintainers are well aware I tend to notice the occasional typographical error in the technical documentation. I'm doing a close reading of a few chapters of the Oct. 2011 edition of volume 3B and have found a handful that are worth correcting.

Where should these corrections be sent?

As an example:

"Time Window for Power Limit # 2 (bits 55:49): Indicates the length of time

window over which the power limit # 2 The numeric value encoded by bits 23:17 is represented by the product of 2^Y *F; where F is a single-digit decimal floating-point value between 1.0 and 1.3 with the fraction digit represented by bits 23:22, Y is an unsigned integer represented by bits 21:17. The unit of this field is specified by the "Time Units" field of MSR_RAPL_POWER_UNIT. This field may have a hard-coded value in hardware and ignores values written by software." [Vol. 3B, 14-32] 23:22 -> 55:5421:17 -> 53:49 [I think these are correct --- it's a simple cut 'n' paste error from the # 1 case.] Thanks, Barry
