Bout time to bump this again. This time my motivation is slightly different. There
been quite as much activity in architecture and I'm hoping this maybe motivates some activity. We could use some more new holds in 2017!
Three holds from the previous list got promoted, The Spacetime Kerfluffle, Torus, and Hold. Some of the other holds on that list are still active or have active architects and there are a couple of newer holds in architecture as well. Some of the things listed at the bottom of the list are on the older side, but I'm hoping they are still active projects since they're all pretty cool!

Klatzl's palace
Architect: Dying Flutchman
Last updated: 31/January
Status: Has twoish active testers, but could always use more. I'll try to post more feedback and demos this weekend Flutchman!
Fendik's Fortress
Architect: mauvebutterfly
Last updated: 14/January
Status: Has two active testers, but again, it could always use more! This one seems to be getting pretty regular updates too. Let's keep it active!
Riddles Within The Below
Architect: Jeff_Ray...
Last updated: 7/January
Status: Another Jeff_Ray... epic (or a reworking of an epic at any rate). This is one of many holds Jeff has in progress at the moment and seems to have plenty of testers. Maybe Jeff can chime in and let us know where he'd like testers to focus their efforts at the moment. This hold? Plague? And Event #2? A mix of all of these?
Five Gemstones
Architect: kr3w.1337brown
Last updated: 30/December
Status: Has two active testers, but is awaiting more testing I believe. This one apparently has neat scripted goodies for those of you who love new scripted elements.
Paid in Full
Architect: BlueFlower
Last updated: 15/November
Status: Has had only minimal testing but also appears to only get updates about once a year. It's a neat hold so far and shows a lot of growth since Granny's Secret.
Monsters Remain
Architect: Fang
Last updated: 14/November
Status: This one has threeish active testers and is mostly complete. As far as I can tell it's only awaiting a few minor tweaks from the architect before it's ready to be submitted. It's a super cool hold Fang, hope you have time to get back to it soon!
Aesthetics hold (No puzzles!)
Architect: Scattercatt
Last updated: 9/November
Status: Not sure the status of this one. As the title implies this one is more about setting and atmosphere than puzzles. It's ahd some feedback but hasn't been updated in a while.
A Simple Hold
Architect: bomber50
Last updated: 14/September
Status: Another Bomber hold that is very approachable. It could probably use more testers too.
Blockerture Science Laboratories
Architect: Xindaris
Last updated: 21/August
Status: I 'm definitley looking forward to this one getting published, it's a super cool hold. This one is mostly complete and is just awaiting some voice acting. If you think you have what it takes to do a Beethro Voice you can apply
here I seem to recall Xindaris mentioning in chat that there is some buggy behavior that needs fixing though. Xindaris, would you still like people to play through and test this one? Imma try my best to finish up my play through soon I promise!
Inspiration
Architect: GerAvos
Last updated: 12/August

mentioned Same thing I suppose for
Fegundo Escort
Sky Tutorial
Architect: bomber50
Last updated: 17/August
Status: I believe this one is waiting for changes/updates from bomber. Really nice tutorial hold though! For those of you who would like to help with beta testing but don't feel like you're up to testing out the more difficult holds, this would be a great place to start!
City Sewers
Architect: superluminal
Last updated: 5/August
Status: This one hasn't been updated in a while, but it's a cool hold and superluminal seems to still be around. If you read this, I hope you keep working on the hold, it's pretty neat so far!
. 
Also, quite a few holds from the previous list have either been published or sent to HA, so thanks to everyone who has been beta testing and providing comments. At this point, Rodent's of Unusual Size is under HA review, and Ghostsmiters, DROD: Standard Compilation, and WYSIWYG contest compilation all got published. Good stuff! Here is a brief breakdown of the holds that have been active in architecture for the past couple of months or so. EDIT: Date format changed to be more clear.
