Well, if they were simple problems, we'd have solved them already, right?
Portkeys - they've always been rather tightly controlled, is the problem. If I could talk to people in the Guild There's several pieces. There's making the thing itself - that's the bit no one really talks about. There's the programming it for where you go. (That part, I'm fairly sure I could sort). And there's the part about adapting for the effects of the wards (Which is a thing we could work out how to test. Carefully. In a large open space.)
Possibly also the part about whether MLE has figured out how to track them specifically or any of the other security concerns.
Chronological is a bit easier to play with, at least in the smaller applications. And we might get stuck, but that's part of learning, and either we'll figure it out or go work on a different problem. It's not like we've got a shortage.
How about I lend you some books and you can work through some of the different applications and make a list, and then we'll go through it and figure out which ones you might make some headway on in a reasonable amount of time?
