We've already corrected proofs for the print run, so it's too late to
change without resetting costs, I suspect (they need to do some work on
the PDF in order to get it ready for print, and will not be keen on
redoing it). We probably can get a version number on the title page, as
some business/financial aspects of the run have held the presses until
the end of this week.

But basically, if people hadn't gone on holidays in August it would be
getting printed right now.
