Subdivisions: Months, theory/experiment, etc.

This page offers a good insight into the development of quantum computing. However, there's quite a bit missing, especially in terms of recent developments - too much has happened in the last 10 years or so, in order to be able to provide a good overview by merely dividing by year. Too many events, often not related to each other, get put into a single long paragraph. From some point onward (1995 for example), I suggest sorting milestones by month of the year.

Another suggestion, as quantum computing is such a multi-disciplinary field, would be to divide developments into their respective disciplines. For example, developments in theory (e.g. error correction), could be separated from experimental ones (e.g. multiple qubit entanglement). I'm not suggesting a separate timeline (that would detract from the idea that quantum computing unifies many fields), just maybe a more intuitive subdivision than the monthly one I suggested above.

In any case, this page has a lot of potential, but as it stands, I don't think it has the scalability, and more importantly the readability it deserves. In case there are no objections, I'll try to reorganize it. Tomatoman 20:10, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
