You guys are trying to read between the lines and in doing so you're just going to find yourselves disappointed again. Read the response letter. In no way, shape or form did they say the book would not be considered canon. To say that the book is not canon is to say that they have condemed the book and are totally disavowing all literature in the novel and scraping it's contents entirely. This is not the case. They simply said they are looking into the issues of continuity with the other novels and established lore and that they are adjusting the errors accordingly for futture prints of the established novel. So basically, the main story will stay the same but they will clean up the some of the specifics and details.
