<div>IW has stated that Activision contracts the work out to someone (ryan), so this would leave me to believe they do not have any control over the matter, but they should still push for it as it is their own creation.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>with 805 Windows servers, i'll take a buggy binary as long as it gets my server name out there. we're all losing out on the first-come-first-serve traffic that usually determines whether or not your server is successful.

<br>distributed by ATVI have linux binaries at release or within a day or<br>so. Not IW. It is always at least a week after and Ryan is pushed by<br>them to release binaries that really should be beta. This is NOT<br>intended to be a reflection on Ryan. He does not have sufficient time
<br>to code them properly while IW is screaming at him to release them.<br>No, I'll be happy if he releases them on the 12th, as long as they are<br>bug free.<br><br>On Nov 7, 2007 7:02 AM, Geoff Goas <<a href="mailto:gitman@gmail.com">
