Yah, but he SERIOUSLY needs to alter his configuration..  Look at the
List-Id header!  The List-Id header is not at all suitable for procmail,
so I will have to do things by hand with the Sneder header (which GREATLY
complicates things with procmail...)

The ammo pack models are pretty easy.  =3D>  I'd _REALLY_ like right/left
handed weapons ala quake2/3 personally.  I'd really like to make the
player model as close to Id's as possible for reasons of skin

Obviously we need a couple DM maps.  TF would be nifty too.  And I think a
single player episode or two would be a good thing.

It'd be nifty if server-side bots could be done for a Q3A sort of effect.
