Hey man, I remember playing this sometime last year or something, looked great. Anyway, if you're still looking for someone in the XML department, I could be willing to do some stuff in relation to the civ pedia entries, and possibly the great people names. (Don't have a ton of experience in that last department.) The reason I chose those, has to do with my experience in XML, as well as I know enough of the lore to do it somewhat accurately.
The only catch is I'm working on my own mod, so I can't guarantee how much I'll be around, what with the reserves, school, etc... Though, I can tell you, beyond a shadow of a doubt, if I start something for you, I'll finish it, with your approval, without disappearing.
