Star Wars Galaxies: Legends is Bringing Bespin to the Community | MMORPG.com
The Star Wars Galaxies: Legends team is planning to bring Bespin to the game in their fifth unofficial expansion. They've since outlined what players can expect from the new content in their latest Community Transmission. The team is so dedicated to getting out the new Bespin content, that they have advised the community that, until the new update has released, they are halting all other updates to better focus the expansions development.

Or Disney...
I want a mmorpg where people have gone through misery, have gone through school stuff and actually have had sex even. -sagil
I don't think EA would even have a stake in the game as their license while covering SW, didn't include the SWG portion, now Disney on the other hand ......
There was a long article a while back on that subject; pretty much it came down to; 'it would probably cost more than it was worth'.
Main points the article brought up were:
- It's a free EMU for a long closed game
- Lucas gave the OK for people to use SWG stuff as long as they didn't make money off of it
- And there seems to be some disagreement on the whole who actually owns that part of the SW universe, because of the whole AbandonWare concept
SWG (pre-cu) - AoC (pre-f2p) - PotBS (pre-boarder) - DDO - LotRO (pre-f2p) - STO (pre-f2p) - GnH (beta tester) - SWTOR - Neverwinter
Logic, my dear, merely enables one to be wrong with great authority.
I hope not. This is a wonderful way to enjoy a great game that got left behind. Still has my favorite crafting system of any MMO to date.

There was a big thread about the threat of Disney on the SWGEmu forums back when the purchase was made, but from what I gathered, the project is basically under no risk of being shut down so long as no money is made.
Raph Koster himself even has an account on the forums and pops in every so often to post in random threads or to share old ideas/screenshots/BTS he had from working on the game.

Oh dang, thanks for the links, Nebless!
It's like when the mpaa started putting up ads in movie theaters that downloading is the devil, meanwhile it was a very small pool of whom knew, general pop had no clue, well that was until the mpaa started f'ing advertising it, then it became a wild fire, people wanted to know how you do it, i want to do it, i didn't know you could do that. Then became a global ocean. All that would happen is bring people's attention to it, free advertising.
One of my son's alt's is a Trader and while I think he's sold some resources on the AH, it's never been enough to support the character. More like pocket change.
I'd say go for something else as your main and save the Trader for an alt. You also end up getting an insta-lvl 80 holocrom, that most recommend using for an Entertainer or Trader alt.
