Here's a project that a friend is working on, I've seen the preliminary work and have been in the last round of play testers.
Essentially it is 4E, he likes to say, "4e, means for everyone", but rather than choosing a race and class, you choose pretty much just a race, and then you begin ala-carte customizing.
It was really interesting, where you can choose to be Feat-heavy or Power-heavy...you can even sacrifice in the area of defense and hit points to gain more abilities...it was a very good play test.
