Having goals are good, but I think you guys are trying to accomplish too much at once. IMHO having an open source client with a similiar feature set as the current client is much more important than trying to build the next generation MMORPG. Not trying to discourage you, just saying that this sounds like it will take you much longer than the previous goal of a working client similiar to eqlive.
Well, we should be able to get the bandwidth drain _far_ down, since we'll be caching a lot of stuff, and then performing modifications on that mesh from there, as well as caching textures.

Also, since we're not using EQ anymore, there's really no reason to duplicate the EQ client's features... gives us a lot more freedom

I think we'll be well off as long as we design it well enough to begin with... we're taking our time this time around
