And I understand Mongoose's is supposed to be a subset of Marc's...

In my folder hierarchy, it looks like this:

0-Traveller 2300
1-Classic Traveller
2-MegaTraveller
3-TNE
4-T4
4a-GURPS Traveller
4b-T20
5a-T5 draft
5b-Mongoose Traveller

But the numbers at the beginning are just so alphabetic sort matches release
date (sort of).

I'd recommend some variant of T5, but I'm easy.
