From reading about the history of this program, the developer - with the good graces of the developer of Scrivener - was allowed to create a forum for Aeon Timeline on Scrivener's site. Apparently, the interest and discussion for Aeon Timeline was so great this is the reason for that initial forum.
When the developer of Aeon Timeline decided to go commercial with the product, he created his own website and forum.
I really like the program. He's only a one-man operation (I think), although he is currently looking for (again, I think) an additional team-member.
So, the two gentlemen have a mutual respect for one another's product.
I wish it did have a left/right configuration, with the characters (for example) alligned to a different grid. The top would be 'INCIDENTS', and flush left would be 'CHARACTERS.'
I'm still assessing it, trying to use it for a short story I'm working on. The story itself is not complicated, so I'm trying to gauge when such a program would really be useful for me.
It could be that I don't fully appreciate the possibilities of the program.
Right now, I can't think of any MAC timeline program that offers the same functionality for writers. (I don't include the timeline in StoryMill, because I feel it doesn't do much. Too, StoryMill appears to be 'AbandonMill.' They haven't done much of anything serious in a number of years to advance that program - in my opinion.)
