Well, I guess if I am asking for news from the north, I should provide a bit more from the south-east.
Several years back the VisiGoths  charged into the orbit of the planet Murat and were surprised by the loss of our entire attack fleet. The Pilgrims had put up a very strong starbase plus their detonating minefields just kicked our butt! 
This defeat has about evened the sides down south. Previously the Citadels had lost a big fleet in an attack that the Fides managed to destroy. 
Since this mutual defeat, the battles have been mainly back and forth with not much happening.
The  Citadels have been madly researching tech as have their  ally, the Pilgrims.
Recently we have seen evidence of new technology from the duo, Electrical 10 and Propulsion 12. Since the Citadels certainly have Construction 10 tech, we had expected to see BCs all over the place by now. Best guess  is that they have decided to go for BB hulls with W16.
The Fides have taken a few Chyortoid planets that were way to close for comfort and minor action continues between the two. To the north, the Knights are very active with minefields against the Fides but no open attack by either race.
That pretty much sums up the situation. Nobody is building anything or just enough to stablize borders. Can't be long before someone gets that last tech, then look out.  The era of WMD will be upon us.
