wvu, but this brings to bear a point. What will steam do for us? Will it be
like the halflife mod downloader thingy was supposed to do? and, btw, can I
still get my mod on that server for it?

We don't have all the details worked out yet.  We'll be communicating this
type of information to the list as soon as we have it.  As always, we're
going to do our best to continue supporting the Mod community.

Which brings up another question.  HOW does a MOD become a Steam supported
MOD?

Does this require the as yet unreleased Steam SDK?  I would assume so.

Will it be possible for MODs to become Steam supported MODs without having
to go through Valve or is Steam reserved for MODs produced by Valve (or
companies that have licensed Steam from Valve) and thus unavailable to
community created MODs?
