A complete rewrite of the 3rd Party Tools article, with an eye towards usability and maintainability

Plan of Action

  1. Initial layout and information gathering
  2. incorporation of all standalone or web hosted tools from the #tweetfleet awesome-eve list
  3. checking and incorporation of all relevant entries from the old page
  4. copy editing
  5. peer review
  6. publication
  7. moving of leftover resources to a new page to compliment this one, with "reference material" and "news"

Outstanding Issues

  • Should self-hosted web-apps (requiring a LAMP stack or equivalent) be included?
  • Should there be a stated procedure for being included / not included? For instance, how long should a tool go without update before it is removed?
  • What to do with items that were on the old list but should not have been, like the Eve Acronyms website?
    • I lean towards making a separate "new player resources" article, perhaps as a part of my guide to getting yourself set up that is currently WIP

Changes from previous version

I am leaving out the following tools because they are not updated in a long while:

  • GtkEveMon - not updated since May 14, 2016, and that was minor
  • EVE Meep - last update in 2015
  • Eve Mentat - no longer extant
  • EVE-O - no update since 2013?
  • Aura - last updated December 15, 2014

Reference Sites

The following entries are being left out because they are not tools per se, and should be part of a separate "Further Resource" type of page
