Sure.

My goal in starting up such a project would just be to provide a place and a
means to coordinate efforts toward a specific goal for people who care about
such a goal. There's a huge Star Wars Galaxies fan base out there, and a large
number of people who would like to see this on WINE. A website devoted to the
goal of making SWG work on WINE would provide a focus for that group of people.

It'd probably just consist of a website and a forum of some kind to track in
greater detail what's changing and what needs to be changed that would effect
SWG. "Heads up, bug #xxxxx needs to get fixed for the launcher to work", "Ok
guys, if you want get the in-game browser working, we all need to put our
efforts into IE", etc.

I'm not talking about forked codebases here, just a place with a more guided
focus on a specific WINE goal.

I guess SF.net would be a good place to start, or maybe a personal blog.
