I like the idea of having the different sections of the old Empire have
different feels to them; Deneb relatively stable under Emperor Norris
(Excuse me, Archduke Norris), the core sectors relatively chaotic due to
looting expeditions from the various Star Viking bases, and the various
faction controlled areas in a state of hot and cold running wars.
As far as rules changes go, please keep the task system. From what I've heard
from people who play DC and T2K, MT's task system is superior. I also like
the idea of having one basic book with additional volumes for ship
construction, robot construction, world building, etc. However, if they are
going to come out in separate books, ALL OF THEM HAVE TO COME OUT AT ONCE!
I don't want to have to wait 6 months before I'm able to run a campaign.
Having a computer virus that effects all the big computers is silly. How is
it going to get all over the empire without anyone noticing? It is also
fairly simple to restore the necessary programs from read only media.
As far as a RT conference goes, please announce it to the TML - I have a
friend with a GEnie account, and I'm sure he'll let me borrow it to attend,
since he also plays MT (but isn't on the TML).
