<a href="http://www.eagames.com">EA</a> posted up a new community update on the <a href="http://www.eagames.com/official/battlefield/battlefield2/us/">Official Battlefield 2 website</a> for us today covering the upcoming BF2 Editor release, as well as detailing a new stats querying service currently under testing.
<blockquote><b>Battlefield 2 Mod Tool Update</b>
As we mentioned in this space a little over a week ago, the Battlefield 2 Editor was released to a small number of Mod Teams worldwide recently to help us uncover last minute configurations issues and/or documentation omissions. This process has been a tremendous success thanks to the dedicated Community Members involved, and we are in the process of addressing a few last minute issues with the Editor. With that said, we are still a few days from Open Beta release. We again ask for the community's patience, as our goal with the Editor is to provide the most stable, complete toolset possible.
<b>Community Stats Service</b>
Shortly after we launched Battlefield 2, many users found ways to query the Stats system outside of the game client and began creating great interfaces and web sites that allowed users to pull their own (or really any player's stats). Unfortunately, we were forced to close this query off to the community after some malicious types in our Community began to run over-large and continuous queries. That said, we are currently deploying and testing a new service that will return some of this functionality to our dedicated players and we intend to provide this tool (along with guidelines for use of the service) very soon. Stay tuned to this space for news.</blockquote>
