Is there an actual project with the MW2 programming team called
"Maintenance & updates"?  I work at a software house, and we will
commit a certain percentage of a programmers time to fixing any bugs
or any revisions that need doing.

As there are a number of bugs in the game that will need fixing if you
expect to sell the expansion pack to us, can you tell us that there is
a formal programming project at Activision with the aim of fixing
these products, and if so, what is the timescale for these fixes to be
made available? 

I think you need to convince a lot of people (not just the pundits
complaining of the lack of a demo product, but those who have bought
the game and paid for support), that you are infact supporting them
and will be offering fixes in the future, not just running off with
their money.

I know that you are working hard on the network game, but surely time
should be put aside for fixing the joystick problems, and the right
arm bug amongst others. Or are you going to release an eight player
network game where everyone's right arm still falls off and you can't
aim straight?
