Keep in mind that 2300AD changes depending on the version you have - the original referred to Twilight 2000 and was seen as a direct timeline from the events of the Twilight War to the events of 2300AD. But the Mongoose version of the game only refers to a Twilight War or Twilight - and is not necessarily the timeline of Twilight 2000.
and Mongoose is not based on the events of The Game that were used for the original timeline - so the question is really - are the events in 2300AD still set in stone
i.e. "Mongoose 2300 AD is based on Mongoose’s Traveller rules and the Core Rulebook is required for play. Gone is any reference to Twilight: 2000 and that period is now simply referred to as Twilight or the Twilight War. Any mention of development via ‘The Game’ has also gone. (Although errors of the original such as Finland being counted as ‘scandinavian’ rather than Nordic have been retained. )"
But that is a discussion for another thread.
