ET:QW Software Development Kit released
Splash Damage said the ET:QW SDK would be released shortly after the release of the 1.4 patch, but wow, I didn't think it would be quite this fast. The official Enemy Territory: Quake Wars Software Development Kit is out now!
It has been split into two different downloads-- the SDK itself (158 mb), and a separate MegaTexture media pack (481 mb) to help with detailing out environments. Very nice of SD to package up so many of their custom textures and make them available to us. Choose a download link Here.
ET:QW 1.4 Patch has been released!
Well it's finally out! The 1.4 patch has been released. There's a huge list of all the goodness that's included in this 450+ MB download. Lots of stuff has been fixed, updated, and added. Thank you Splash Damage for your hard work putting this patch together.

Also, this is good news for those waiting for the final SDK because SD said the SDK release wouldn't be far behind this release.

MAC: Enemy Territory: Quake Wars Details
Aspyr has released a little information on the development of the Mac version of Quake Wars, here is the quote:
ENEMY TERRITORY QUAKE WARS As Quake Wars gets closer to final on the PC, we've continued to ramp up our development efforts on the Mac side. We're working closing with Apple, ATI, and nVidia to ensure the game runs as smoothly as possible on the Mac. The major work remaining is optimization and cleaning up bugs. If all goes well, Quake Wars for Mac should be ready to ship close to the PC release, so Mac gamers will be able to join in the multiplayer fun with their PC friends.
