W3rd 
Open Broadcaster just updated to 0.5 beta and has got some nice features added and bugs fixed. If you wanted to get into streaming but didn't want to pay for Xsplit then this is exactly what you need.

Random Map Change 
Could probably be hacked into the engine pretty easily. 
 
also, Spike pointed to the DP_QC_FS_SEARCH extension, search_begin and friends.

Another way is a bash script to start a randomly selected bsp file, and kill the engine after each map. 
 
easiest would be to modify "map" or "changelevel" command in the engine to ignore the mapname and load a random one instead. This could be cvar controlled.

What's It Like To Import And Export 
Quake mdl into and out of Blender? 
Well 
I wrote a script to export mdl out of blender several versions ago, but I couldn't be bothered to keep it up to date with the plugin API changes (the interface was not very stable in those days). I'd recommend the export to MDL via MD3 or FBX routes, since I can provide a converter from either of those formats to MDL. 
I Managed To Import Enforcer.mdl Into Noesis 
Never heard of Noesis before but it seems cool.

Then I exported to Wavefront .obj WETF that is.

That loaded into Blender just fine! No skin though, though it could be there. I dont know enough about Blender [yet].... 
Import/export Blah 
I dunno why people have to convert a billion times, I'm certain that you just make the model and save it in the required format and it will load in quake. I'm positive in fact.

That thread has some of the details (and a rant).

New Redesign @ TAW 
Updated the site with a redesign focusing on making the site more tighter and tidier. There may still be problems that need weeding out in certain browsers. Please let me know.

Hm 
Smaller font size actually makes it harder to read for me.

The menus right? Was worried that might cause a problem for some people despite the intention to tighten up the list.

If the small font size there becomes a major concern, I'll gladly increase the font in those spaces. Everything else should roughly be the same size as before.
