You can breathe easy on that account. The changes I've noticed between the
October and December 88 drafts resulted in a very noticeable improvement
in the quality of the technical writing. It's interesting to leaf through
a bunch of drafts to see the evolution of some passages, from wording that
leaves you thinking "Huh?" to something that actually makes sense.
