Will the new seasons be played with Punkbuster enabled? If the answer is no, then you can ignore the following 
I ask, as we've been having nothing but hassle with it ourselves (crashes one players machine, and lots of issues with auto updating not actually working for the rest of us). On the whole, it looks like we should be ok if we update manually pre-match, but we may all get dropped if PB decides to auto-update during the match, which obviously isn't ideal.
Also, I've noticed the bookable servers aren't always running the latest version of PB. I gather this is because they aren't always running Quake 3, which I'd also imagine would be the same for the league servers. This has the unfortunate side effect that they may update during match play, which can lead to some interesting pings for a bit, and may not be ideal for serious competition.
Anyway, I'd be interested to know your thoughts.
