It appears that Tau will discover Planetary Net 1 turn before Qantaga (at Current rates). This would just give Tau the turn needed to gift it over . I know you will gift over the prereqs to Ind Auto as well.
Tau will you gift everything you have to qantaga then in the hope of increasing the chance that Ind Auto will appear or would that make no difference?

I am undecided on the IndAuto thing. While I would not build crawlers for a few turns yet, the Wealth SE choice is always a handy one. Against this is that I am researching my first tech but it is non-crucial so it might be more important for me to get a faster infrastructure as opposed to any tech contribution I can make. I doubt my faction can be much tech help but just wait for my armies . . .
On balance i would say please give it to me now since cheaper rush builds- an extra energy per base and a commerce boost should compensate for the increased tech cost. I would jump into wealth immediately.
I am still pretty uncertain on which is better so if you folks have any comments, please let me know. As for you two is the next target gene splicing?? and on to eco-engineering??

Ouch Double !! I did not realize the effect would be quite that dramatic. I will hold off on getting Ind Auto for now until after I have finished applied physics. My next choice will be Non linear maths (if available) -- or HEC as a 2nd choice
Once I start my next tech I think it would be definitely worthwhile to accept both Biogenetics and Ind Auto and get infrastructure ramped up. I won't need social psych for a long time as i will keep sending out CPs before I grow to size 3. I may wait on SOTHB as well since the fungus in Drone area is not that bad. Other than the two above, the next tech I may actually want would be Eco engineering
The plan for you folks sounds great. If you want SOTHB you may as well go for it now and get the free tech . . .then Social Psych, Ethical Calc and GS -- I am just loving the idea of playing the Drones without the worries of the million year wait to get the good techs.

2113 sent to Flubber.
Well my friends, I have made a terrible blunder. I forgot to send IndAuto to Tau this turn. 
I closed the commlink, intending to go back in and send IndAuto once I had it, but I was so thrown off by my tech choices that I completely forgot to go back to the commlink and send it. Many apologies! I will send it next turn.
The techs have been falling into place so well, that I was a little taken aback when, much to my surprise, my only tech options were D:Mobility, ProgPsych and Applied Physics. I didn't want any of those, but I chose AppPhysics, with the thought that Flubber could send it to me when he gets it and I can hopefully switch to a better tech. Here's hoping Tau will get a good choice when I actually send IndAuto to him next turn.
My labs did take a big hit with all the techs Tau had gifted me. I am 15 years out of my next discovery, but I will have a Colony Pod on the move next turn and another to follow soon after, so that should speed things up a little.

Well qantaga-- it sounds as if you made the best of a bad range of options of available techs. I will get app pysics in 4 turns and will gift it too you immediately. As for me, I will want both biogenetics and Ind Auto as soon as I finish this tech and start another. The switch to Wealth and rushed rec tanks just seem too good to pass up once the cost of my next tech is set.
So far I am enjoying this but I can't help but think that Googlie has a powerful AI waiting to hit at us. Thats why some weapons would be good--- just in case.

Thanks Tau for the reminder on the prereq-- I have to make that line on my "tiny tech tree" more apparent.
I may have to rethink impact since i could get HEC (get GS fro you folks) and then go Synth Foss. F.-- Might take a bit longer to get us an available weapon BUT it would be on an attractive beeline
I have also been thinking that the Planetary datalinks might be a worthwhile wonder if all the AI are techsharing in their alliance--
Any thoughts on these random musings

whew-- finally got in here
it all sounds good-- we need social psych to get Eth calc and on to gene splicing--
I already sent you applied physics and would like to see both biogenetics and Ind Auto for myself for my next turn. Then the next tech I might want would be ones for restrictions lifting as I can do without rec commons for a good while-- I feel rushed rec tanks and then some crawlers are in my future . . .

I will have my next tech in 5 turns IIRC. I am about to undertake some rec tanks rushing and I am headed into the unity wreckage and hope to get the goodies that come with that.
