Yeah I don't think there is any intrinsic reason why all servers must have
the same map sets. When people are developing new maps they may well put
them up on their own servers with a warning about the beta status of the
map. Once they are properly tested they can go in to the core map set (or
not).
I'm not sure if others have seen this but a couple of years back I came
across some guy who had setup a Crossfire server for his kids. All of the
maps on that server were apparently developed by the children themselves,
primarily for them to play in. They had setup a website explaining what
they had done (including screen shots, etc). Clearly he used Crossfire as
a vehicle for his kids to have fun and be creative at the same time. I
think it was an excellent idea.
Cheers,
Rob
