The FreeUOClients website at http://freeuoclients.sf.net/ is now up and working - The news and trackers are showing on the site now, and from now on, news will be posted on the main site (and the Announcements board of the forums) rather than here.
The source code of the text-client and the core are going through a bit of a reorganization at the moment. It may be a few days (or a bit more, depending on how long this takes) until the CVS gets updated, but the core is in a mostly functional state currently. The text-client isn't going to be useful at least until the reorganization is done, but it wasn't terribly useful before as it is still a work in progress and mainly used for testing purposes, and the text-client is not our final goal in any event.
