If I remember, there were 2 fully functional UO server platforms
created by customers who had reverse engineered the protocols.  It's
too bad that EA didn't go for the idea.

And players would have gone crazy for it.

I was kind of hoping BioWare would put up an official player vault
to facilitate this...  along with a few web boards specifically for
organizing games, helping server owners interact, etc.  Still, I
think NWN has a fantastic chance of becoming the game UO could have
been.  Better late than never.
