Errors are inevitable; the only question is how they should be dealt with. The policy for The New Winawer Report will be to treat each issue as final once it is published. No revised versions will be prepared even if (or rather, when) errors are discovered. Errors will be gathered into the final issue of the year, along with an index and other supplemental material, and in the meantime a running list of errors will be maintained on this page.

Very interesting materials.
I note that the pgn file of issue 3 is 0 bytes. So the are no games.
Best wishes
