This list of corrections to \JoT, 1986 edition, includes all known
corrections that preceded the release of \AmSTeX{} Version 2.0.
Reprints with corrections may already incorporate some or all of
these changes.
The printing date of each copy of \JoT\ is identified on the reverse
of the title page. The list below will permit you to determine
which corrections have not already been incorporated in your copy of \JoT.

For differences between earlier versions of \AmSTeX{} and Version 2.0,
see the {\bf User's Guide to \AmSTeX{} 2.0}.
