I've worked on two emulators for the Pre-Alpha, the most recent one I've been working with is the Ultima Online: A New Age emulator by Max Scherr. It's interesting stuff, if you know anything about the technical aspects of UO, you should take a gander. Use the usual channels.
As for the Alpha and various Beta tests, so far I have no responses. I've searched the internet exhaustively, and the only resource now, as far as I am aware, is people who played back then. There's no online copies anymore - But with your help, we can make them available to everyone who would study, decode, or play them.
If you have copies of the Alpha or Beta tests, PM me.

Those screenshots are awesome. They look slightly silly when you compare it to the BETA, but still.

I agree the art on those boats is way better. I remember reading years ago that they were removed because they were really buggy due to their size and that that skel sceeny was just an event.
What I really can't understand is why they removed the catacombs. That would've been perfect to have them under the gy and maybe connecting to a few of the basements and sewers in Brit. Bahh lack of foresight noobs!
