Since I am unable to access the usual, automated voting-poll functionality on this board, I'm trying a "manual" voting-poll...

I'll go first, and give an example of step #6.

I trawled through the options and I *think* I found the one that allows users to create polls. Can you try this again now?

I voted for the traditional names - they tie in with our wiki, and I'm used to them (thanks to our Wiki, the Feudal States .pdf & Wildeblood's Galaxy Names OXP).
Comments wanted:
Missing OXPs? What do you think is missing?
Lore: The economics of ship building How many built for Aronar?
Lore: The Space Traders Flight Training Manual: Cowell & MgRath Do you agree with Redspear?

Yes, that's it. Thank you.

Also, chart 9: Ultradraconis. Which I assume is fake Latin for "Beyond the dragon(s)".
