I wish I could. TeamFoundation server consists of a SQL Server database, 
sharepoint site, and an application tier consisting of a lot of web 
services. It would be much more difficult to try and duplicate the 
server side, then the client side, imho. I just want a client personally 
so I could checkin/checkout code, respond to bugs, etc. on my *nix box.

If you are really motivated, then another option would be to connect to 
the TeamFoundation server on Microsoft's codeplex site 
(http://www.codeplex.com). Its the only TFS server I know of that is 
accessible via the Internet. However, to do this, you must have a 
registered account, and be a "developer" or "coordinator" on a codeplex 
project. Not very helpful, except for those very motivated to help 
implement/test these APIs.
