There are some.. but not since last summer. I actually started a Wiki that was coming along nicely until I got HAMMERED at work.
I promise to get back to it ASAP.

Can someone tell me what is going on with the BBS Restoration project? I'm trying to get my hands on TA for WG.. a legit WG license.. anything. It seems like this is the place where the licenses for most of this can be issued but there hasn't movement in ages. If there a pricelist? What is the deal?

Tele-Arena came to me in a bit of a piecemeal fashion. The author seems to have lost the source code to the original game. I have the full source code to the latest code base - he had worked to upgrade the game engine. The new engine debuted with Tele Arena II. The downside? TA II was a new world - it's smaller, and certainly the original author intended to expand it. But of course we all know what happened to the BBS world.
So, I have to try to retrofit the TA 1 world into the TA II engine. It's not exactly the same format. Complicating things is that I don't seem to have a full TA 1 final world in source format. I'm still going to work on it, but things at work for me since Fall 2006 have been ridiculously busy. That's why I haven't posted anything.
Further, I'm converting the web page to a Wiki format. I've asked a few people to provide feedback on it. The only thing holding me back from opening that side - even though it's not as complete as I'd like - is vandalism. I need to make it more secure, more moderated. There has been excessive vandalism on the Galacticomm wikipedia entry.
Behind the scenes, I've done a bit. I've found more people, found more software. I've had talks with many people interested in getting involved but all with one exception have vanished or wanted upfront cash for any efforts.
