Yes, actually, I, and a few others in the SFC2.net RM forum have been working towards that goal (slowly, lol). I have the majority of the Fed shiplist done. My approach has been to make the ships a little truer to SFB, but not overly so, and to correct any obvious mistakes, both to the shiplist, and to the models.
Edit-ok, re-read your post. Not a true default shiplist, no. Personally, I'd rather not see that beast in the light of day again.
