Well the 'Official' order of canon is as follows:

Not quite canon but overruling 'official' sources are:
-Expansion Novels originally published by Bantam Books
-Expansion Comics originally published by Dark Horse

Then we have official sources:
-StarWars.com
-Behind the Magic CD-ROM
-Various Cross Sections and Essential Guide to the 'X' books.

Then we have ignored sources:
-'Droids' comics
-'Splinter of the Mind's Eye' novel
-Games (games are balanced to be a fun game so technology is often 'made up',
although certain story elements could be considered official)

Eh?  Isn't _Splinter of the Mind's Eye_ in the official lists of books, as
well as the other books originally published by Del Rey (Brian Daley's Han
Solo novels, L. Neil Smith's (odd) Lando Calrissian novels, and all the
books published since Bantam was kicked out, including the entire New
Jedi Order)?

The newspaper comics?  The Marvel comics that have been reprinted by Dark
Horse (the other Marvel comics are generally ignored, I know)?  The
Christmas Special?  The Scholastic juveniles (Jedi Quest/Jedi
Apprentice) and the other juveniles (e.g., Young/Junior Jedi Knights, both
listed in the timeline in the NJO books)?
