Remember, the new Encyclopedia will be out, with all the new errors in ship sizes - it'll probably have Hidekis, Big Dominion Cruisers, Son'a Vessels, Breen ship, Equinox, Raven, and god knows how many other ships. <P>Unfortunately, that will be it for the book market in the coming months. The DS9 Companion won't be out until August next year (and that by Terry Erdmann as opposed to Larry Nemecek, who knows what kind of book that will be). Shortly thereafter, we have Starship Enterprise which deals with the various Enterprises (by the Encyclopedia team: Mike, Doug, and Denise). Unfortunately, Voyager TM won't be out until 2001 according to Margaret Clark, and I guess that the series would be finalizing its run by then.<P>HOWEVER, in 2001 or 2002 we'll have the new Star Trek series which is definitely in development, so that should be kinda exciting if I may say so. That would also be the time period for the next movie (nothing in development for 2000). And that's as far as I can see in the future.<P>Maybe we can now talk about the past a little bit?
