Mostly I'm wondering if there are plans to have things customizable that currently are limited by the SOE client. For example, you can change the AA's around but since the client wont let you earn AAExp until lvl 51, there is a limit to the customization of AA's. As well as other features that are coded to the client.
Also I'd be curious to the how...

I understand that right now your probably more concerned with getting the client as functional as Titanium.

I'll be posting the source, so customization will definitely be possible.

That's awesome news. Do you need an SVN repository for OpenZone & SimpleClient? You should look into releasing it under MIT or GPL on Google Code (code.google.com/p/) as they offer a whopping 2GB of data space I believe it was.

MIT is more open than GPL is, even though EQEmu uses GPL. The only thing about GPL that I dislike is the share-alike referendum, which a friend pointed out to me.

http://code.google.com/projecthosting/ has all the info you'd need. I prefer it over all other things for open source development, and EQEmu switched over from Sourceforge. Only caveat is you have to have a google account, which is free and takes ~3mins to register. The project creation literally takes 5 minutes to set up and have the first revision loaded. It also has guides on SVN if you don't have an SVN client. TortoiseSVN should run on 2000, which I think you were using to develop. Let me know if you need any help setting things up in PM; i'm really looking forward to this release
