Thanks everyone for the great suggestions for my timelining problem. I tried to summarise and categorise all the suggestions, here they are, in case someone else might find this useful:
Full PIM:

Mindsystems Amode V2: http://www.mindsystems.com.au/products/amode/index.php
Spreadsheet-like solutions:
TreeSheets: http://treesheets.com/
XMind: http://www.xmind.net/pro/features/#link3
Mind Mapping Software with timelining:

Timelining specialists:

TimeMap: http://www.casesoft.com/timemap/download.asp
BeeDocs: http://www.beedocs.com/timeline-feature-comparison/
TimeFlow Analytical Timeline: https://github.com/FlowingMedia/TimeFlow/wiki/
Web-based:
Dipity: http://www.dipity.com/
SIMILE Widgets Timeline: http://www.simile-widgets.org/timeline/
Recorded Future: https://www.recordedfuture.com/how-media-analytics-works.html
Graphics:
SmartDraw: http://www.smartdraw.com/product/features/timeline-examples/
I need some time to evaluate these, but one that immediately caught my eye was TimeFlow Analytical Timeline. I like it that time-based data can be viewed in 5 different ways. That would be very helpful in analysing data.

Dr Andus,
I’m not sure where your quest got you, but I’m posting here for reference an (apparently) new Windows entrant, Outline4D http://www.screenplay.com/p-77-outline-4d.aspx
It seems to be aimed at script writers and features vertical-outline / horizontal-timeline and other views.
Outline4D does not seem to provide a trial version, but there are plenty of screenshots in the above website, as well as several videos here http://www.learnoutline4d.com/

I still haven’t got to this stage in my research (hopefully I’ll get there by the end of October), so this is very good timing and a great suggestion!

For the record, regarding Outline 4D:
It was released in early 2010 as a rebranding of the earlier Storyview. See:
A 5-day trial version is available here:

Whoops, I now see that what I just posted is redundant as Alexander already posted further info in another thread. Sorry for that—- I’ve not been following closely enough.
