From a post on ##:
Update :Alastair can call his new tracker anything he wants, and it seems he has decided to call it TehConnection. From memory he was Community Staff while at TC (cannot remember where from). He has opened up the offer to legitimate TC staff and good luck to him. Unfortunately he has not communicated with any TC staff that I am aware of. We looked at keeping the name TehConnection - however we decided against this due to the issues which TC has had in the past at the hand of at least 2 of it's owners. For those who are looking out for the relaunch, remember the letters JCT which will be staffed by the crew that TC users remember well: DG, hwkns, brucie, myself, and many others. Good luck to Alastair and his version signed: legit staff of the site formerly known as TC

"Old accounts (emails and usernames) will be left intact.
As mentioned previously, only those users who joined TC after March 2017 may find their account to be non-existant. However, once beta is done, we will likely be using the same interview process we had just implemented toward the end of TC "
Update2 :

"The db was a complete back-up - user accounts, emails, torrents, forum posts, torrent comments etc.
We will likely only be keeping user details (names, passwords etc) and torrent data initially. UP/DOWN stats may be lost however due to the new tracker - still to be decided
ETA - as mentioned, comes down to dev free-time, so sorry, nothing firm yet.
The initial plan was supposed to be end of last year, but that came and went... "
