You probably won't. The 1 month deadline means the map is going to be extremely rushed, unfinished or simply a rename of a map that someone has already released.

there are still some maps from tfc that i would like to see ported over to tf2, hopefully someone will do that (i know the rules say original.. but de_tuscan anyone?). some of them may not work as well anymore because conc jumping is gone though.
