In the RSS 2.0 "Example 4-1"

In "Example 4-1" (sample RSS 2.0 feed) both of the <pubDate> and <lastBuildDate>
children of <channel> appear to *NOT* follow the RFC 822 date format. Page 28
specifies the format of the content in these elements, "Example 4-1" does not match
the samples from page 28. In the example they are like so:
<pubDate>03 Apr 02 1500 GMT </pubDate>
<lastBuildDate>03 Apr 02 1500 GMT</lastBuildDate>

Figure 5-2

The Figure doesn't correspond with the text. The text describes a more complex
example of a RDF graph, apparently with sub-elements for <managingEditor>. The Figure
indeed shows a more complex RDF graph than 5-1 but it has nothing to do with the
description.
