For luddites (like me) who want to have a paper copy, note that any updated version online is not immediately translated into an available book version:

At least according to wikipedia:
"When a book ... is revised, the author is required to purchase a draft copy and then approve it. The draft copy goes through the regular order process with approximately one or two weeks delay for printing followed by shipping time. The author may approve the draft by checking a box on the 'project page' for the book, or the author may enter a revision. After entering a revision, a new draft copy must be ordered according to the regular order process. This is true whether the revision is one letter, the whole text, or even just the price. This procedure is repeated until a final draft is approved."

This seems a shame.
Does anyone know if the Tasmanian print guides are thus old versions?
