There are other quake* engines that include a builtin HTTP server.
Anyway I suppose you can include your.torrent files inside your.pk3 files, and let the server distribute these.pk3 files. so as soon your connect to a server that.pk3 file will download (if you don't have it), and you will be able to get your precious.torrent files from inside the.pk3 file.
Synergie is a tecnical word. It has a precise tecnical meaning. Your whine is like a bussines type saying "please don't say Bytecode!". Synergie mean (I will try to make a definition here, even with my horrible english skills. Oh.. and my knowgment of that tecnical word is also weak) a byproduct of a fusion of two companys, this byproduct is a change of the production of the company.. it could be positive (the resulting company product more than the original two) or negative, product less than the original. A split, like that we have here, could have a positive synergie: both companies produce more separated (maybe the burocrazy costs will be smaller on AOL, so it will be easier to make money now)

Netbeans is much faster and elegant than JDev. Netbeans is much like another Eclipse, maybe better... Eclipse is open-source.
Suppose we meet some aliens. Is not a invidiual that meet another invidual. is his ecosystem that will meet our ecosystem. Think australia + the european animals.
So to me, thinking as ourselves as ecosystems could be usefull.
this laws are supposed to help this dude, or people like this dude, if this dude fail to protect itself, then our system has failed, and we don't need any protection. If the force of the strong is the one that prevail, theres no need for laws.
Some QW engines use a closed source module. Since QW is GPL this is a small violation of the GPL no one care about.
I don't know how to handle this Nexuiz. Has to be easy* to pick the Darkplaces engine and compile a version with wallhacks. Most probably this is managed by real humans on the other side banning ip's and the sort.. and with a nice enough community where cheating is rare or non existant.
* to tell the truth.. DarkPlaces is (sort of...) a total rewrite of the Quake engine. It has interesting tecniques to speedup the rendering, and use today technologies. This complexitude will act somewhat like a "unintended obuscation" to make writting wallhacks somewhat hard.
On the BSP loader, you only need to create a function that generate a CRC of the data loaded. And have something like a list of "banned" CRC's. That way, If you hate a mapper, because he is a ugly bastard, you can release a version of Nexuiz where his map's will not load at all (you can calculate the CRC of all his released maps). TADA!!... DRM for Nexuiz.
I totally agree with you on one bit. The genre is somewhat like unoriginal. On the other part, it was the intention of the dev's to create preciselly that. Nexuiz is a long proyect, it was in active dev, in 2002, so is maybe a 7+ years old proyect. Is timeless, is a effort to create a very good "Quake Arena" gameplay. In his defense, Id Software also released this year "Quake Zero", and seems was wildy sucessfull. So seems there are people out here that want this type of gameplay. Maybe not u, and maybe not me. But other people like this type of fun, and Nexuiz deliver it.
There are lots of other games out here that are tryiing other ideas, but this one is about this core gameplay that is proven that is fun and as lots of followers. And IMHO, this type of gameplay is very good for the opensource model, but other type of gameplays are not good.
On the other side. If you don't like this type of Gameplay, Nexuiz is a opensource proyect AND a platform. You only need a bit of QC to make a mod with a totally different gameplay style. Maybe something like Natural Selection, or a action-RPG, or whatever you want.
The details are not important. Like you can drive a car, and you don't need to know the color of that car to drive it. A neuron is a simple thing. It collect M signals, and generate a single output.
A book is a bunch of letters: A-Za-z Having 100.000 computerized neurons is like having a "book" made of 100.000 letters. It don't mean make any sense (=It will not compute stuff, just kind of 'exist'). But could be a interesting tech bed to try to make something like, who know? maybe the brain of a worm, or the brain a snake.
Another reason to not use consoles. Why would people use a locked down hardware withouth command line, a poor control system (pad) , horrible visualization device (a fucking TV), etc... Theres also the thing the gameplay of console games is like 20 years older than on the PC. These guys are still using Quick Time Events like in dragons lair, man. THESE GUYS ARE STILL USING SAVE POINTS!!!.. man, is gameplay from 1994.
I have never read about this game, and I watch obseivelly indie sites. Maybe has been posted on these sites, but I failed to see it. I think this guy has poorly advertised this game. Other than here on slashdot, of course.
1. The pirates will like your game. 2. Going first page on a website or list, has a direct effect on sales. 3. Dev's buy/play other dev's games/tools. Dev's are cool people to dev for.

You can have a good idea. Who cares? everyone have good ideas. Worth nothing. If you can implement something, that is something, but still not enough. It takes much more to win.

I used to mod a quake engine, and this patent looks trivial to me. Is something anyone building a 3D engine can add to the game. A patent sould be about something no-obvious. And this is obvious (now and then).
