I guess it is time for a small status update, not really newsworthy in itself but at least you know TBP is still kicking after the downtime, heh.    

TBP R3 base, two campaigns and old R1 demo campaign are nearly done. Missions still needs a lot of testing to ensure that they are bug-free, at least no showstopper bugs should be present at the time of final release. As for the base, we're actually missing one last ship. All others we need for R3.0 are done but needs polishing, like glow- and shinemaps for example. Although FirstOne ships are not a priority for R3.0, there is a small change that you will get Vorlons and Shadows in the next release.    

We haven't yet decided whether we will call for a number of beta testers or if we handle all testing internally, should we need beta testers, you will heard from us in our forums. And as for how we will release R3.0, our current plans include both FilePlanet and Bittorrent. From FilePlanet the files will most likely spread to other download locations. We are seriously planning to have our own bittorrent tracker for TBP. And we are planning that TBP fans can share their TBP stuff by uploading their torrents to the tracker, so you no longer need to rely on sucky free webhostings. A beta of TBP tracker is already running 'somewhere', and should we call for beta testers, the release candidate will be downloaded by bittorrent.

And some more news, although I didn't quite want to post three news in a short time.
