Some very good suggestions! What I would do for the command conversions is either allow the commands to be changed by a script, or add a cfg conversion file that loads up when the system starts. This way anyone can change the commands to whatever they want.

I promised myself I won't release anything new until I've completed a version of mEAn that runs under Linux. Once that is done, I plan on finalizing the WIP and releasing it as a final for both Linux and Windows.

After that, I think mEAn will need to be changed significantly. For example, it really should be converted to work as a metamod plugin. Also, I find it is too inflexible in some areas, for example the different weapon modes should be user configurable, also it would be nice if there was a scripting system for it so people can add their own extentions (as you've suggested).

It is sometimes difficult to find enough time to get things done, and right now I'm busy with work that I get paid to do, so obviously that sort of thing will take priority over the "for fun hobby stuff". I really connot say when I'll have the next WIP ready, or even if I won't release something before the Linux conversion is ready. About the only thing that is for certain, is that I am working towards creating a Linux version, and I'll make a "final" release shortly after that.
