First off, id will give out the server source code.  Yes, they want to get
Quake compiled on as many servers as possible.  Quake should spread like

in to a Quake server, then they'll need the expanse for adventures or, 
more importantly, the room for deathmatches.  Deathmatch is their 'first'
priority.
