History & Background (Dossier)
The AAB adopted the specifications system early in the time of the Vilani Imperium, and all of its succeeding empires have kept the system. It has a relatively standard format although many administrators over the millennia have modified or otherwise edited the files and databases, leaving a not perfectly standard set of data.
The Library Data used on Ship’s Computers at and starport libraries may diverge from the data collections at AAB Data Repository installations. [3]
