BW Forums and BW Data Files?

Hello all.  I played BW back in 2006 and am just getting back into it.  I see the BW forums are read-only now. Have they moved somewhere (here?) or does anyone know what is going on there?  Is the game dead?  I ordered some things from their store but it's sitting in pending/processing so I'm wondering if it's dead. Also.  I know Luke isn't keen on BW PDFs and no problem there.  I am interested in though in perhaps creating some tools for BW using Angular and wonder if the Lifepath data or other game data is available somewhere in spreadsheet form?  I'm interested in creating some tools but not interested in it if I have to type all of it in. Thanks for any info.

A new BW tool would be awesome as the charred one is missing some of the newer stuff. <a href="https://charred.herokuapp.com/#/" rel="nofollow">https://charred.herokuapp.com/#/</a> However sadly the only spreadsheet i know of which isn't all inclusive is this&nbsp; <a href="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1xyIVR5SUhP" rel="nofollow">https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1xyIVR5SUhP</a>...

I purchased my gold copy recently and have a game running at the moment. Hope it isn't 'dead' as it is an amazing system which i want to continue to play.&nbsp;

Many thanks for the replies everyone.&nbsp; Any indicator from Luke on his views of data files?&nbsp; I want to respect Luke's wishes as he's been very clear about electronic forms of BW (PDF anyway) but I want to find a happy medium that gives us tools to run the game and lower the barrier to entry while respecting his intention.&nbsp; Gaming requires a derivative work to function though so I would hope he's somewhat agreeable. The barrier for me is not having the data (lifepaths, traits, etc) in some format I can turn into CSV or JSON files to use in an app.&nbsp; Creating the app would be straight forward and it's large enough that typing it all in is out of the questions. I'll ask over on Google+ thanks

Just following up here as I mentioned I wasn't sure if the game was still active because my order seemed to be sitting on processing/pending.&nbsp; &nbsp; I did receive my order today of both BWG and the Codex.&nbsp; &nbsp;The order is still marked as processing but no doubt they're just waiting for the delivery confirmation so it only looks like the order is stuck but it's likely on it's way.&nbsp; So all good by me.&nbsp; Just wanted to add that in case anyone else is having a similar situation and wondering.
