Entire Book

I tried several examples in the book, but the web services do not seem to be hosted
there anymore. The examples are less useful than they could be. The author should
make the server code for these samples available, so the examples could actually be
run. Otherwise, maybe the author could find more stable web services, like
governmental or standards organizations?

paragraph 3, line 1

Just a suggestion...

where it says "at once"
change to "both"
or perhaps just remove "at once"

Example 2-3

<element name ="code" type="CodeModule">

should be

<element name ="code" type="SoftwareModule">

since that is the name of the complex type defined earlier in the example.

1st paragraph

line 5: content-encoding
line 7: content encoding

RFC 2616 refers to the "Content-Encoding" entity-header field. Which leads to some
ambiguoity. It is quite possible on line 5 where the text reads:

"chunked" content-encoding

should read: "chunked" Content-Encoding

paragraph 3

As of February 11, 2003 RPC::XMLSimple is still not available on CPAN. In order to
make Example 4-1 work on page 53:

change
RPC::XMLSimple::Client
to
Frontier::Client

Eventually our mystery maintainer of RPC::XMLSimple will release something to CPAN
(one would hope), and this passage won't need to be updated.

Example 4-3

Until Frontier is renamed RPC::XMLSimple, Example 4-3 must be modified as follows:
"use RPM::XMLSimple::Daemon;"
changes to
"use Frontier::Daemon;"

"RPC::XMLSimple:Daemon->new(" (also incorrect due to missing second colon before Daemon)
changes to
"Frontier::Daemon->new("
