Plan for Jeremy Noetzelman

Well, I'm working on the same project I have been for a fair amount of time. It's a 3d MUD (no, it's NOT a MMORPG, yeesh) with a steampunk theme. The initial working title is Steamwerks, and we've got a core team of about six people working on it.
We were rolling our own engine, primarily due to licensing concerns with Torque, as this is a commercial product and we'll be obtaining external funding for it. However, Jeff Tunnell managed to convince me to use Torque, and he didn't have to use a baseball bat to do it. So, we're moving all development efforts to Torque now.
At the moment, we're preparing for a more public announcement, at which time we'll have concept art, screenshots, etc ready for show.
We are looking (somewhat idlely) for texture artists as well as modellers (preferably folks who really like steampunk and rpgs, of course) ... Though we're not really looking very hard until most of our concept art is completed.
I've also been asked to help out on a few other RPG projects (and one very unique action game) ... So I'll be helping out wherever and whenever I can, as I believe in giving back and helping out others as much as possible ;)
