Confirmed errors:


(9)  1st paragraph;
In order to execute the application you need to type:

java -classpath target\test-application-1.0.jar mdn.testapp.App

It's missing the "-classpath" part.



[9]  Section 1.4.1 on Safari Version;

Missing parameter so example will not run.  Says:
C:\dev\mavenbook\code\genapp\test-application> java ^
More? target\test-application-1.0.jar mdn.testapp.App
Hello World!

Should say:
C:\dev\mavenbook\code\genapp\test-application> java ^
More? -cp target\test-application-1.0.jar mdn.testapp.App
Hello World!

Note that the instructions should include the -cp option.



(37)  maven-javadoc-plugin description. 
"generate" should be "generated"



(49), in the side comments, it says: "A postGoal uses the same syntax
as a preGoal, and defines a block of Jelly script to be executed before the
goal specified in the name attribute."

The "before" word should be replaced by "after". Thus it should read:

"A postGoal uses the same syntax as a preGoal, and defines a block of Jelly
script to be executed after the goal specified in the name attribute."



(66)  1st paragrah;

it seems the quotationspage url has changed from
http://www.quotationspage.com/data/qotd.rss to
http://feeds.feedburner.com/quotationspage/qotd

the url appears on several other pages of chapter 3 and in the source code
