Was hoping to have an update by last weekend.. but am running into an issue.
Looking for someone that might be able to assist with one of the following:
--) Free webhosting that allows the use of Java (need it for smali/baksmali to run to decompile/recompile services.jar to theme several components
--) Or help wrapping the above mentioned .jar files into stand alone linux binaries... (Have tried this, but the ones I've made are giving me out of memory errors when running on the webserver. :S

is there an update for this coming soon?
WOW! I couldn't have said it better myself! Coming soon!
Soon = however long it takes to finish debugging the new engine (back-end) for the site, and get the new site up and running on the new host.
So, since my last post, markfogel has offered hosting on a VPS, that DOES work with java (!!), so, that issue is solved.. Just need to get the site contents moved over to that server...
In the meantime, the engine that ran the existing site was completely re-written from shell/bash into Perl... and with any major overhaul like that come a few bugs... think I've gotten most of them, just need to fix reading config files correctly, and passing the vars back in, and a few multi-line search/replaces, and the shiny and new perl code should be set to run the new site!
Most of the code is on the new site, just need to work around a theme issue or two (since the theme was being pulled from WordPress.. but the new theme site will be on a completely different server than before... so I don't know how to carry over the header/footer.. but I got a buddy, who's a web guy who's looking into it.
I had hoped the engine would be fully functional by the end of the weekend.. *cough*.. but right now, looks like another day or two. Then I figured a few days for the site/theme/etc. stuff.
Next weekend maybe? With some luck, *maybe* next weekend.
