They talk about the future of Quake, the map pool, all the different DH competitions and much more, here is a snippet:

This is the first big TDM LAN in QuakeLive and the attendance looks to be good, do you think this is the start of TDM becoming a bigger deal again?

slayzah: I would really love that TDM started to become bigger again actually. If we (DreamHack) takes the first step to add a tourney with it, I hope more will follow.
snelvovve: I would sure hope so! So I will do my best to make this TDM experience as smooth and enjoyable as possible.
