Reading about the rise of the upcoming wp>WebGL technology, I discovered Brandon Jones, a good programmer who made a demo for rendering Quake 3 maps with WebGL. He was also kind enough to share his technical thoughts and talks about this project, mentionning the CopperLicht WebGL JavaScript 3D Engine which is also able to render Quake 3 maps.

Following a news on FFF, I discovered XCSV, a Quake 3: Excessive mod derivated game based on ioquake3 and using a full replacement textures set, allowing it to run as a standalone game.

Quite sadly, I saw that the XreaL project, whose goal was to bring an enhanced and visually improved Quake 3 game, has been abandonned :( As Tr3b, its creator, stated: ”the original XreaL game project is dead and I won't waste my resources on dealing with artists again.”.

SyncError from id Software answered today a bunch of questions on the ESR website regarding QuakeLive. When asked about the possibility to add some 'single-skill' game mode, SyncError answered: ”Concerning single-skill focused gametypes, I think Defrag or a similar type of 'Speed Run' gametype could be an obvious choice when considering adding a new gametype.”
