Will you do it Slick or should I?

(I can do it next week, have plenty of time, working night then. But you do it better (actually the truth!))
I know I have been posting a lot but right now, but I am actually in a real busy period. If you could do it, that would be great. Also, you do just fine with the updates. I was using MS Word, but for some reason the hypertext links were not copying properly and I had to edit them in this UBB editor after the fact.

* looks over notes *

I haven't had time to write up some of the recent discussions for inclusion, but one topic that must go in is the great idea of using minefield markers (CTRL-M) to alter the pathing of your ships in simultaneous movement. i.e. forcing ships to go over planets with resupply facilities, etc. If you could summarize that thread and find a good spot for that one, it would be great.

To all: Last call for inputs for next revision. See Ruatha for cut-off date, but get 'em in ASAFP

[edit: Oh, yea, one more thing, I was trying to find a standard format for questions and answers, as you can see in the file. I was using the format:

x.xx.x Q: question blah blah blah
A(name_of_the_guy_who_posted_the_answer): answer blah blah blah.

But if you come up with a better format, change it.]

Thanks!
Slick.
