In retrospect, I think it was a bad decision. SJG should have gotten the
primary timeline license, and Imperium Games should have been told where to
get off. It would have meant a temporary abeyance of 2d6 Traveller, but I'm
not convinced that Imperium Games' mishandling of the product line was
better.
