We will only be using the official metamod from
www.metamod.org.
His is the most stable, and it works on every linux server I have ever used.
The compile options Will Day uses are nice and generic, and the only mod it really does not support is NS3, and someone has patched it.
Metamod should not be forked and that is a mistake. If a user has a problem with Metamod, they should post it on the Metamod mailing list or contact Will Day.
If it is decided that MetaMod is no longer being updated to compensate for a large number of new mods, who knows? You might see Metamod X....
