For addressing unexpected serious bugs, it would be good if an official "NS2 Update" mod was provided with the game, and enabled by default. This would allow for much easier and faster turnaround. Admittedly, only Lua-side fixes would be possible using this method, but that could be all that is necessary for a temporary solution until an official release can fully address the cause.
I realize NS2+ is sometimes used for this, but it contains a huge array of changes, many of which are experimental. This mod would only contain temporary updates that are considered by the CDT (and UWE) to fix issues that substantially undermine NS2 gameplay.
P.S. I know this was discussed before, but now that the CDT is doing work, I thought it might be good to revisit.

As far as I'm concerned there should be no server in existence which does not run ns2+. There is simply no excuse.
