Is this going to be a sudden change (ex: BAM! it comes out, and automatically get uploaded to the servers), or will you be setting it up on the test servers to play around with before initilizing the changes on the servers?

Also, you mentioned putting in a "basic garbage collector that runs on map changes". Does this pertain to random data or are you talking about the actual mapvote code? I guess what I mean is; will you be able to reprogram some of the mapvotes to better circulate the maps (most noticeable on zmod I feel, it tends to go towards the escape maps and older cade maps that were put on the server furthest back) when this new system is put in place?
