Yes, and you got an answer. You registered at my site, and after hunting down some errors I think my first version of the site sould be ready for take off.
I just copied the dev tree to the user tree and will test this tonight some more to see where it needs some tweaking. You may try it now. There will probably be some fine tuning tonight, but don't worry.
Always remember: this is far from production, it is a QnD site to enter & verify or falsify distances. Errors I found so far will be posted separately FYI, and as a PM to RedWizzard & Themroc so they don't miss it.
Anyone wanting to help, register at
http://the-temple.de and set your commander name from the settings so I may merge your TGC distances to your account here. At the start or main page give the system name you are in:
Main things to do now:
"Systems where we need more distances to increase the confidence"
is a list of -you guessed it

- systems where the location is known but should get more distances to assure the position. What you can do: Go to the galaxy map and copy paste the system names to the search field under the navigation tab. GM should jump to the location and show you a distance. If the distance is the exact same as shown in the table at the website, check the "OK?" box. If not, please click the magnifier glass beside the system's name and enter the correct distance. AND drop me or here a note, this is a rare case. I checked 100+ distances and found only one error.
"3796 systems where we need more distances to calculate the coordinates"
Yep - similar as above, but no calculated distance given to compare. You have to check at GM and enter by hand.
You don't need to check or enter all of the distances. The tables are limited to 39 sytems each, in fat there are several 1000s. Just do a few of them, as many as you like, and click "Submit". Distances will be saved in the database and (mostly) transferred to TGC. You will see some debugging stuff and some more useless information, just ignore it. Will probably disappear soon.
But right now I'd like to have some commanders enter and check some of the distances and tell me where to improve the page, add or remove some stuff etc.
If you can't find a system in the ED galaxy map, please let me know.

Hi, maybe some old hats, maybe some new things. Thanks.
Found problems so far:
Hydrae Secoter UJ-R B4-1 is a typo, correct is Hydrae Sector UJ-R B4-1
HIP 61062 system does not exist
17 Draconis coords mismatch: (-305.75/272.21875/49.5) vs EDDB (-310/272/50) - EDDB is wrong
ICZ IR-V b2-5 coords mismatch: (78.96875/-120.375/27.90625) vs EDDB (76.03125/-122.78125/29.40625) - EDDB is wrong, coords would match ICZ IR-V b2-2 at a glance
Taurus Dark Region GW-W d1-53 coords mismatch: (-32.5625/-74.28125/-401.53125) vs EDDB (-32.59375/-74.25/-401.53125) - EDDB seems to be wrong
Argetlámh, Nantóac, Mantóac and Lífthruti are in database twice, probably some problem with the accent
Correct spelling is probably Argetlamh, Nantoac, Mantoac and Lifthruti - at least MySQL and ED Client find them with these spellings
Buma is a typo, correct name is Bamu
Systems with identical coordinates:
I can't find a sys named Flechs. Can you?
PUPPIS SECTOR EG-X B1-1 A is probably a star in system PUPPIS SECTOR EG-X B1-1
Alrai Sector JC-V B2-6 A same as above...
Omagate is a typo, correct is Omagatae.
Hyades: the rest of the name was omitted, correct is Hyades Sector HC-T B4-4
Herculis Sector ZE-A B86 does not exist, correct is HERCULIS SECTOR ZE-A D86
OI-T B3-9 misses "Alrai Sector" at the beginning
Core Sys Sector EB-0 A6-0 is wrong, correct is Core Sys Sector EB-O A6-0
Col 285 Sector BW-1 B24-7 is wrong, correct is Col 285 Sector BW-I b24-7
Core Sys HH-M A7-3 is wrong (although ED Client finds it in GM), correct is CORE SYS SECTOR HH-M A7-3
IDZ DL-X B1-1 is wrong, correct is ICZ DL-X b1-1
LFT 16653 is wrong, correct is LFT 1653
LP 634-18 is a double space between which gets eaten up from the forum
LP 937-98 is wrong, correct is LP 937-95
Pleiades Sector SZ-0 B6-3 & B6-4: the number 0 is wrong, the letter O is correct
Praea Euq SX-U s2-18 is wrong, correct is Praea Euq SX-U d2-18
Praea Euq GR-O b13-0 is wrong, correct is Praea Euq GR-D b13-0
Praea Euq GV-W c is wrong, correct is Praea Euq GV-W c15-7
LP 649-73 is wrong, correct is LP 469-73
Synuefai FL-V d3-7 is wrong, correct is Synuefue FL-V d3-7
Synuefai NM- is wrong, correct is Synuefai NM-N c9-0
Synuefue d2-26 is wrong, correct is Synuefue XJ-X d2-26
Coordinates for Synuefai FG-R c7-4 are in fact for Synuefue FG-R c7-4. Synuefai FG-R c7-4 is at a different location.
Coordinates for Synuefai LM-I b15-0 are in fact for Synuefue OH-I b15-1. Synuefai LM-I b15-0 is at a different location.
Coordinates for Synuefai VN-G b16-0 are in fact for Synuefue VN-G b16-0. Synuefai VN-G b16-0 is at a different location.
Are these twin systems like HIP 24020/HIP 24019? ED Client shows both at same location in GM.
