The last mention was that it is still progressing but is bouncing between authors.
Personally I hope they don't do a word for word copy. There was a lot in the original adventures that could be expanded, and updated with what we now know about the setting.
The third adventure definitely needs the most work, I thought the original was, to coin a phrase, a bit meh...
in comparison with the first two.
I'd be tempted to go kickstarter next year and offer side adventures and supplementary material, it would be nice to have a campaign where the characters reach the end and have to go, ok what's the next job...

It won't be anything near word-for-word - one of the reasons we are taking our time is because we want to get it right.
Although it is looking possible that a certain adventure based on... an ocean covering a world... might leapfrog Sky Raiders.
Either way, some cool adventures/campaigns coming for Traveller

A good blog from Steve Hatherley who is running Sky Raiders and whose critique is quite valid. I am a player.
Have to say I hope the rewrite is more a sandbox, factions, rumours, locations and potential encounters -- with some very good potential hooks but none that are mandatory.
I have found recent work like the new *Ancients* overwritten and railroading.. I think Sky Raiders could break free and meld all the elements of the *Far Frontiers* into a complex and interesting whole.

We make a concerted effort to take updated legacy products off the rails and make them into proper sandboxes, so take heart. That should be our approach with Sky Raiders when we get to it. The Traveller Adventure is on the list for derailment, too.
