OK, that's more-or-less consistent with the material that I've seen,
though as I indicated, I thought there was an implication of "some
non-Traveller-based system".

Yes, CE is clearly based - and in fact explicitly says so - on the RTT
1e SRD. It was the UMP stuff I was thinking of, and at the not-free
level, I'm not really at this point willing to investigate it further.
I asked simply because I'd gotten the impression that UMP was
more-or-less Traveller-compatible, but not based on the RTT SRD, so I
wanted to see how they managed that.
Thanks.
