	* The text was changed to reflect that the ''Coventry'' class had NCC placement "more than 600" units less than the ''Surya'' class, as the ''Coventries'' are in the mid 1200s and the ''Suryas'' in the 1800s.		* The text was changed to reflect that the ''Coventry'' class had NCC placement "more than 600" units less than the ''Surya'' class, as the ''Coventries'' are in the mid 1200s and the ''Suryas'' in the 1800s.

			* There are three flights within the prime ''Coventry'' class, reflecting different shuttlebay configurations.

	* The sidebar was changed from [[2255]] to [[2257]] to reflect the weapons upgrade mentioned in the text. Technically, it occurs "after'' 2257, but I've chosen to interpret that as starting late in the year.		* The sidebar was changed from [[2255]] to [[2257]] to reflect the weapons upgrade mentioned in the text.
