What are the color codes on the English Bible Versions Timeline?
I very rarely look at this tool, but, but do any of you know what the color codes on this list mean?
And while I'm asking about a tool I almost never use anyway, the timeline seems to end in 2005 with the TNIV. I think it came with my "English Bible Collection" many years ago. Does anyone know whether this tool is still current, and if there is any plan to update it?
Thanks!

Looks like just a sequential color series to visually separate the entries:
"If myth is ideology in narrative form, then scholarship is myth with footnotes." B. Lincolm 1999.

In the screenshot I posted, some of them had little colored circles and some of them did NOT
@Theophan Dort in your original screenshot, dots correspond to entries corresponding to a specific year. The entries that correspond to a spans of years are normally indicated by rectangles when the form factor allows it and reduced to lines when the form factor is reduced like yours was.

Well, isn't that interesting? In the screenshot I posted, some of them had little colored circles and some of them did NOT, so it seemed obvious that they must mean something, be some sort of color code. But when I closed it and opened it up in a different view, maybe a different degree of magnification or something, now they all look like they do in your screenshot, and they seem like they're just going in a rotating sequence of colors.
Not the intriguing answer I was hoping for, but it looks like it's the answer — thanks!

Regarding your question on 2005/TNIV that was the tale-end of Libronix … Logos4 began the new and chaotic.

Not my question but I feel a bit deflated as well … I was hoping they meant something 😄
