I am interested in what progress has been made understanding what M Theory is, what it's nature might be beyond dualities between partial theories, and any ideas about what types of phenomenon it might predict, beyond the partial theories.
I would rather any discussions of plausibitlity of M theory, judgements compared to other theories, etc. *not* be part of this thread. I'm hoping for a neutral thread on progress specifically on M-theory as unified theory of particles and forces including gravity, as distinct from general success of 'stringy approaches' or progress on any of the 5 component string theoroies+supergravity (unless one of these is giving a clue as to the nature of M Theory).
