[crossfire] Metaserver2 / schmorp

[Mark Wedel]

  I agree that they should be removed/blacklisted for not using proper 
map/arch/codebase fields.

  I haven't looked into their code, but if in fact they are using a 
different/incompatible protocol (different format for commands, or different 
commands), they should also be removed - in that case, they should set up and 
run their own metaserver.

  My point is more that if a server states it is running some specific version 
of the protocol, and is in fact compatible with that version of the protocol, it 
shouldn't be blacklisted just because of that (otherwise as mentioned, we'd get 
cases of slightly out of date servers getting blacklisted)

  OTOH, protocol compatibility is a bit of mess simply because so much stuff is 
negotiated with the 'setup' commands, so lots of commands were even added to the 
base crossfire server without the protocol ever changing.  So I suppose the real 
test then is if the official client of the corresponding protocol version can 
play on the server, it is OK to be listed, if it can't (because of removal of 
common communication or need for client to support commands it doesn't), then it 
should not be on the metaserver.
