There are definitely plenty of projects out there based around other engines. While it would be neat to have an open sourced client for EQEmu, it may not have the expected outcome and acceptance from the community as you would think.
In all fairness almost all those projects suck. I do agree that it would take a while for it to gain traction (if it ever did). Doesn't mean it isn't something worth doing. I'd love to see something like SimpleClient actually come to life and be written in a language people can easily use.


Edit: Cavedude pointed out what I said came off as a bit harsh. I don't mean to disparage the work of other people, just that the projects lack maturity or openness and aren't really great candidates for "hey go work on this instead". They so far have all been essentially pet projects and the minute one takes the jump from pet to community project I'll be sure to back it.
