That's a good point.  I wasn't thinking of having references to the
main text in the appendix, more just a quick reference to thumb
through while you're programming.  I guess to update the appendix
users could download a new version, print it out, then stuff it in the
book ;)  More seriously, it would be handy to have a printable version
of the pygame documentation, that is useful independent of any book
about pygame.

Thanks everyone for your replies.  My conclusion so far is that the
plan for the appendix isn't crazy and I'll go ahead with it until I
hear a good argument for why it's not allowed or that it is
unreasonable.  I'll pass the question along to my lawyer friend and
see if he has any new angles on it.
