Per the feedback from other people on IRC and other means, I've put
together a list of requirements that people want to see with the
metaserver reporting.

So, with this post I am asking public server admins to cooperate on the
following:

* All information must be as accurate as can reasonably be (IP Address,
hostname, number of players, server version, etc.)

* Only crossfire compatible servers can be listed.  Compatible in this
case means that the official crossfire clients can be used to play on
that server without any issues.  Servers may have enhancements the
official client does not support so long as those enhancements are not
needed to play the game.

* If the server is only going to be available temporarily or for a
limited - indicate so in the metaserver comment area.

This is not a final draft or a complete list by any means, but I think
it's a reasonable start.

Comments?
