- Zones now show at scale 32 pixels/parsec (example)
- Routes now show at scale 8 pixels/parsec (example)
- In the latest Firefox/Safari/Chrome/Opera browsers, the neighbor subsector labels from the "little black book" generator are rotated (e.g. The Spinward Marches). The subsector capital is also called out in the blurb.
- Lots of internal code cleanup in the HTML/JavaScript. One of the intentions of building this site was to learn modern Web development circa 2005, and I hadn't really gone back and applied the knowledge I've picked up since then.
- Made the legend center correctly (oops - it's been broken since I fixed the hex ratio)
- Permalink coordinates are now rounded 3 decimal places.
I broke some functionality in IE for a day before noticing; please let me know if anything still seems awry in any browser.

Joshua: Things look good. I was one of those having IE trouble with the Map last week and am happy to say it's working fine now.
A question: do you happen to know if the rift located about eight (8) sectors rimward of the Hive Federation has a name?
The origin of that rift is this article by Mike Mikesh:

While the article contains a map, it's a map with no names. Alas.
"...a new book called Grand Exploration is being planned by the Digest Group" - that would have been fun.
Joshua - Thanks for your very prompt response. I knew I'd seen that article before but didn't know where to find it.
I've got a "pocket empire" I've been working on for a decade or three that I'm trying to place relative to Charted Space and it looks like it'll fit best in direction.
