Hi guys,

While I am patiently waiting for the European release I checked out the
1.1 patch readme for CoD:WoW. Until the Linux binaries are ready I'll
put up a Windows server in the mean time. Anyways... * License key is no
longer required to run a Dedicated Server.

In the list of fixes this point made me wonder... Is there a dedicated
server download available perhaps? I mean, as far as I know you can't
install the game without a license key, so why this fix? So is there a
"server download" available or do I have to install the full game from
DVD as usual?
