D&D 4e Character creation ala Classic Traveller

I posted up a thread on the RPG Table Talk forums which I am hoping that we can use to come up with some house rules for creating characters in D&D 4e that mimic the character creation rules that you use in Classic Traveller. If anybody would like to contribute to this discussion, I encourage you to get over the the RPG Table Talk forum and add to the thread.
