GPLv3 is quite limiting for a JS library. The source file[1] also has no license in the header, just a copyright.<p>[1] <a href="http://veritetimeline.appspot.com/latest/timeline-min.js" rel="nofollow">http://veritetimeline.appspot.com/latest/timeline-min.js</a>

This is gorgeous.<p>Thank you for making it open source.<p>Reminds me a lot of Simile Timeline (by MIT: <a href="http://www.simile-widgets.org/timeline/" rel="nofollow">http://www.simile-widgets.org/timeline/</a>) but this looks so much better!<p>Thank you.

Beautiful! I love the collapse/expand feature too.<p>One problem I have with the UI is that I feel the left/right arrows should ONLY be for going to different horizontal locations on the timeline, but they scroll through vertical locations as well if they are all at the same time. This was unexpected. Perhaps up/down arrows for the vertical navigation?

Building something simalaar to this was the only good idea I'd been harboring forna while now, but it will be interesting to see the feedback. I couldn't figure out how flexible to make it or what features to support, or if it should accept a file-based data structure for those not wanting to program an api. I guess I don't really know the audience.

Looks good from the pics but on my iPhone it makes the website impossible to use. Scrolling and pinch to zoom doesn't work.

Very neat. There are no examples for parsing times instead of just dates that I can see (but it appears VMM.Util.parseDate supports it). Something like a timeline for server monitoring data would be a good use of this. Also, I would hope for a little more commercially friendly license for a library like this instead of the GPL.

Very cool.<p>I want to create a journal/blogging app which uses this as its main user interface.

Beautiful! Is anyone else slightly annoyed by the front-loaded easing when you click the arrows? (I have no idea if that is the right term, but I mean to say the fact that it starts slowly, then speeds up. I'd prefer the other way around).

Vertical scrolling option? (or at least scroll wheel support?)

Doesn't work very well on ChromeOS. Also, why is there no HTML "file format"?

Wonderful! I can't wait to have some free time to play with this!

Try the zoom buttons to experience the slickness. Very cool!
