something like that added into the .space community.

A while back, Tom McDonald threw up this graphic:

http://www.baylug.org/titan/lugnetspace.htm

with a small timeline diagram of different universes and how they relate to
each other and to history.

I'm still gathering my thoughts on Zacktron advancements and really really
want to do more with it.  That's one of the reasons I'm posting this.

What more can you do? I thought you have left the site up as a memorial to
things put off. If you change it you will no longer be procrastinating.;-)

So, could there be any integration into GS, or SpaceWorld (if that gets
going ever..) some sort of timeline diagram with links off to peoples'
universes and timelines so at a glance can be seen how these relate to each
other?

This would be a big undertaking in that everyone does not have their respective
universe timelines mapped. For example mine diverges from current history on
January 3, 2000 but I have yet to decide where in the future I am going to
place things. I think that everyone involved would need to work out their own
rules of history, physics (FTL travel, artificial gravity, etc...),
cartography, etc... After all that is done we need to negotiate crossovers
between different universes.

I am willing to help coordonate the information but I do not have the time to
develop it for posting alone. I think your idea is practical but it would
involve the developers of all the universes (or is that universi ;-)

The more I think about this as I type this reply the more I want to be involved
in the challenge you presented. I kinda reminds me of what Harmony Gold did to
create Robotech (Mixing Macross with several other anime series) I think they
did a good job considering.

OK, now who wants to host this? I am willing to slow things down a bit with
Squad Six to work on this although I don't know if I can put Squad Six totally
on hold. *cough, cough <sounding like Zacktron> <grin>

Who knows, maybe this is my place to get involved.
