1. Support for AQ2 or more accurately SPAQ in other words Normal Quake with AQ weapons. That would add a new challenge to it.
I have never played AQ2, but the futur of my work is more oriented to standalone game (like CodeRed) than support for old commercial games (AQ2 isn't free no ?). But if somebody want to start an AQ2 WorldServer, I can help him and give support. Don't forget it's open source, everybody can create another WorldServer.

2. LAN games!? I play Q2 and AQ2 actively with 3 of my friends but we play on a LAN so we'd like to be able to play this outside internet, too.
You can play COOP or DIE on a LAN, there are 2 possibilities :
* You have an apache server (or easyPhp on a Windoze PC), you install the PHP script and create a worldserver MySQL database (do it only if you have admin or programmer knowledge).
* If your LAN is connected to internet, share your connection, start a server (dedicated if you want) with a worlserver account. Each PC can Connect with his own account (on the worldserver). And join YOUR server. If you have an internet shared connection, you probably have a proxy or firewall, so other players from Internet can't reach you. Yours accounts data (inventory, health ...) will be stored on the COOP or DIE worldserver.
It's possible
