Incidentally, Chi, I thought there were two documents you posted corrections for, but I can't remember the other one and I lost the email with the link. Can you point me at it?

Looking at the threads I think it's AA2 and Temple of Bones I've posted corrections recently. I'll double-check my email but I don't think I've sent anything else.

There are several more instances of "hp" rather than HP, unless they were fixed. Best to search for them using "match case" turned on.

I removed the tags identifying which of the SG adventures each magic item was used in; there was no explanation, and someone coming to JN3 without knowledge of its genesis would be a bit confused by them. Since they seem to serve no internal purpose, I dropped them. You could use the search feature of the PDF viewer if you wanted to find where they were used, after all.
The stat-strings below the statblocks for the new monsters are inconsistent (Dark Elves don't have them, for example) and they aren't set in MonsterBlock style. I never liked that added bit when it was in the Field Guide. I think it was intended to make it easy to copy and paste a monster into an adventure, but honestly I'd rather see a separate supplement for that.
Anyway, we should either:
1. Put them in everywhere they belong, and correct the style, or
2. Remove them all.
I'd like J.D.'s opinion on that, as it is his module.
Remove them. Simplify, simplify, simplify...

I'm going to post a new release shortly. I've replaced hp with HP everywhere, I think, and removed the stat-lines as mentioned above. Also cleaned up the Arrow of Dragon Slaying text a bit... parens were strangely placed, and could be removed, so I did.

Solo and JD: if there's not a pending new release of this anytime soon, I'd like to print this bad boy out for a thorough reading and editing.

Ok have printed it out and have started editing. Due to the number of fixes, clarifications needed, etc. I likely will be too lazy to type all of them up. 
Instead I'll scan in those pages that need attention.

To make it easier for both of us, could I scan and post as I complete each "sub-module"?
