I've contacted Aral to setup the new project and email, that should be ready sometime soon and can move this over there.
As to a phone call/brain dump, yeah that'd be great. Not only to cover the FCS stuff, but I would like to talk over a bit about aproaches to clustering/load balancing. We did a Java2 server at zing.com and it worked GREAT. So, i'lll fill you in on how that worked and maybe that'll bring something useful to the table.

Well said Martin,
If we don't need clustered, load balanced remote objects then J2EE is
overkill, spring would be better and it runs in any J2EE container. I don't
know much of anything about FCS but once we get some requirements down we
can come up with interfaces and worry about language later. I also do a lot
of UML, use cases, domain models, seq diagrams, I use the iconix process
which is a reduced rational approach so if once we start getting
requirements I can help organize that stuff so we can break development into
logical modular pieces.
I may need a braindump of FCS from someone sometime (john) so we can do that
on the phone sometime if the projects gets rolling. I do have 3 projects
right now as well as a full time job (we just got another adult swim show so
I have to get our damn website updated :) ) but I should be able to put in
some decent amount of work.
Cheers,
Grant

I think you mean JBoss and/or Spring, theres some fire out there on the
internet when you search for the two together ;)
Anyway, im willing to chip in with what i can, i spend a lot of time
doing back end java work (with spring :), but would like to see the
effort being as language / platform neutral as possible.
Obviously it will head towards where the expertise lies, but I think it
would be useful to provide a 'reference implementation' in whatever
language, but architected to make it easily portable.
Sounds like youre a good architecture man Grant. :)
I guess the major architectural issues of the component parts of FCS
will have been dealt with to a large degree, so looking at existing
architectures and implementations for inspirations may be a good start.
Really, the work on reverse engineering the protocol could be done in
parallel with the design of the system itself. We know *what* the system
should do, just not exactly how it talks to the player.
like i said, i'll offer what i can, ideas, research, design, code etc.
