Is networking in Torque so hard ??

Hi !
I am looking for an engine to build a game-client prototype ; i am currently working on a new massively online gaming server technology programmed in Java.
We are interrested in some TGEA licences for our client-side prototypes and we have to know how much time it can take us to integrate the TGEA client with our server technology, wich complexity... As i saw on the forums it seems to be a very expensive task, big time consuming...
I know it's possible (i've already read about some Torque-Darkstar integration posts) but questions are :
-> how much time will it cost ?
-> Is there a little documentation about client/server achitecture for Torque that i can read ?
-> Can we count on experienced feedbak on integrations like this ?
On our side we are a little french indie company (Klakos) specialised on prototyping innovatives online gaming, already experienced in C/C++, Java and Flex programing.
Thanks.

I've been on the OpenTNL website and saw that the licence lasts from 1999 to 2004...
Then when i tried to acces the forums i saw that there are no more forums ; in place there is a redirection to the current GarageGames website with an error 404...
I think there have been a technology break since OpenTNL to a new implementation of TGEA engine.
I've read somewhere in the forums that the TGEA engine has been re-designed with client/server design in mind (note that i'm maybe wrong, because i've never used it), so i am looking for any information about that...
Do anyone have an answer ?
