Foreven - placeholders or not?

Should I replace the Foreven data that I'm using (by James "GypsyComet" Kundert, Dylan Lee and P-O "BeRKA" Bergstedt, original here) with placeholders per the Foreven Sector Reserve doc?

I'm leaning towards "yes". What say y'all?

Probably best you do... I believe that when we built the sector reserve, we added two system locations...

No, please leave it as it is.

I already created adventures around some of the systems and I guess others did do that, too.

And I use the map as reference, as is. Empty entries won't help me anyway.

The data wouldn't go away, although BeRKA would need to snapshot the data for his site:

Don - are you aware of anything canon discoveries beyond what's in http://farfuture.net/FFEForevenSectorReserve2008.pdf ?

I have been thinking about this since I saw the post.

It would make sense to clear the Sector. But I think I have a better suggestion that would please all.

Add a switch for canon or fanon data and clear all fanon data. (The Foreven Sector is in a better shape than most other fanon data.) Make the switch visible (like the - PRESERVE - tag). Then if you are interested in the fanon data, you just have to click ths switch.

Anyway, my list of canon for Foreven is listed at my Foreven page. It's 5 worlds with UWPs and two with just names and two unnamed droyne worlds.

@BeRKA: Yeah, I'd like to have that switch in general.

BTW, you should regenerate your Foreven LBB PDF - the booklet maker now produces a world index and other goodies.

Also, the map link can just be http://travellermap.com/go/foreven
