I'm a fan of the 10" speaker ... especially in groups of four or two. I usually play my Marshall 3203 through a 1965B cab - which is a sealed-back 4-10 ... and my most beloved amp is my '67 4-10 Super Reverb. With the G10's and the Vet 10, WGS has a history of making some really great sounding 10" speakers. I own a pair of the Celestion Vintage 10's ... and they actually really sound quite awful. I have not yet heard Celestion's 10" version of the Green Back (it's made in China, right??) ... but I'll just bet WGS could make a better sounding Britt ten. I'll add my voice in support of such an endeavor!
yeah i love 10 inch speakers and the green beret (and celestion counterpart to an extent) just sound great to me especially in lower wattage amps(30 watts and under)
I got a chance to listen to one last time I visited the plant. It was only a quick listen, but I thought it sounded as good as the Celestion, but Daniel & Dean were not satisfied ... I guess "as good as" will never satisfy any of us! So, anyway, I can confirm that it is something that is actively being pursued; I can't imagine it being too terribly long before they are deamed "ready to wear the WGS name".

Apologies for the necro-bump, but any chance a 10" Green Beret is any closer to reality?
