Just saw this over at the official IW forums. Looks like we can start adding some new maps to the rotation.
Not sure if you owners got an email about this or not. Here's a quote and some other info.

Big news for all you people out there that have wanted to disable
certain perks and mod things like helos. The 1.5 patch for COD4 has enabled
persistant ranking to be available to mod folders. This means that
players can now enjoy custom maps in the fs_game path, and still be able to
rank up like they did for the so-called "ranked" servers.
You dont even need a mod to run custom maps now. Just create an fs_game
folder, put in your config files, and boot up the server, and off you
go. No mod necessary.
What does this imply for the future of mods?
Well, you can mod the hell out of the game, like disable UAV, Choppers,
and Air Strikes, disable perks like Martydom and Last Stand and still
rank up.
This means that modwarfare is no longer necessary to be used as a basis
of a mod. The community wish for Create-a-Class to be available to
modded servers, and for it to "save" your selections is now a reality.
This means you wont even have to have any mod.ff files. (so, if those
files were causing you a headache, you might be relieved to hear this)
Looks like we the player are being listened to by the game creators!!
Very Happy Very Happy
