information (an adminsitrator specifed name). This data is intended to allow clients to display a browser
interface, similar to those found in Quake 3 or Tribes 2, from which they can select a server to play on. Note
that in the future, each ServerInfo will represent a game world instance, not necessarily a single server,
and that a single server might run multiple games. Thus, hostname / IP is a very poor ordering / caching
value.
