Proposal

Being the author of FFEStarsys (and, apparently, the only one able to understand the code on jongware.com), I can output data on just about every star system of the 500 million available in virtually any format I choose.

This is just a hand-edited sample; I'm not too keen on the looks of the planet detail list. Any suggestions are appreciated.

Would you people appreciate this info for every link to a star system? At least it gives you something to click on.

I think its a great idea. thats the brilliance of wiki - anything of interest has a link (ideally) I would certainly like it, if its not too much effort for you

-John

Populated/important systems

Certainly populated ones or notable ones. I think the full 500 million might be just a tad excessive (and it'd use up rather a lot of space in the database).
