Errors in the Propeller QuickStart Board documentation

I've found several errors in both the Rev A and B documents for the Propeller QuickStart Board.
The Guide says the LEDs are connected to P0-P7 but according to the schematics it's P16-P23.
The pin table does state which pins the LEDs and Buttons use.
There is no information on powering the QuickStart with batteries, since some devices need more than 3.3V.
The Delta-Sigma DAC information for Rev A is missing and in Rev B the pin numbers have changed per the schematic.
According to Dave Carrier in Post #15, only a few Rev A boards have a 32K EEPROM but the schematic for Rev A shows a 24LC256ST which is only 32KB.

There might be more errors but these are the ones I have found thus far.
