honestly, out of our group of devs, only one of them plays DAoC on a regular basis. The rest of us just want a project that we have control of, and a project that we can learn from.
as for server layout... your guess is as good as mine. I have never played EQ (other than about 3 hours worth) and have never used an EQEmu, however, the general plan behind the CoX server is to be setup similar to a Sphere install in that the world starts out empty, and has to be spawned, built, etc... Now, when i say we will be like Sphere, that does not mean we will use the same type of backend (txt files), it just means the server you start out with will be bare and will need to be designed in any way you and you players see fit.
as for pvp/rvr, both will be available in due time. No clue as to how either will work, but the plan is to make pvp and rvr definable at the server level. so either your server is pvp, or it's rvr, or it's both. we will also try to get these settings down to the "region" level, but again, who knows how it will all end up.
