Correct.  The Programmers Reference For System 6.0 is *based on* those
ERSs, plus it also benefits from the dialog between the Byte Works and
Apple during its review.  Explanations in the book are more complete and
explicit in many cases.  (And, of course, the book has a table of
contents, an index, organization, and is formatted to be much more
readable.)

Future Technical Notes will refer to the book, not the ERSs.  We have no
intention of publishing corrections to the ERSs, since in most cases they
are already corrected in the book.
