This was from Cached.net, a smidgeon of info on the map pack. No word on it's or the patch's arrival.

Mark Rein, Vice President of Epic Games, was in #ut2003 on ETG tonight answering questions from members of the community. Here is some of what he had to say...
<k|Tex> Mark how do you feel about CliffyB being sexier than you? Do you sometimes want to fire him so that you're the top dog?
<MarkRein[Epic]> k|Tex--> I'm happy that Cliff is sexier than me.
Ok, ok...there are more serious questions ahead, don't worry!
<k|Tex> Mark can you give me an estimated release on the 2k3 Map pack, I spoke with CliffyB at CPL and he told me mid January, but it hasn't come out.
<MarkRein[Epic]> k|Tex--> Uncertain. We're testing like crazy right now. This isn't just a simple map pack. There are also three new gametypes and a new mutator or two. Gametypes need a LOT of testing.
As for the size of the map pack?
<MarkRein[Epic]> Sergio--> Not sure. I think it's about 200+ mb, not 700 that's for sure.
Wish they had released the maps on their own...because I got the impression from CliffyB at CPL that all the maps were done and good to go.
Other random comments from Mark include:
<[s]GoDLiKE> MarkRein[Epic]: MY FINAL QUESTION!!- Mark, is there any way you could make a [.dem] to .avi converter?
<MarkRein[Epic]> [s]GoDLiKE--> Not from us but we're going to have a category for Matinee movies in the upcoming mod contest
<MarkRein[Epic]> [s]GoDLiKE--> Sorry we have no plans to make a [.dem] to avi converter, sorry
