All of the GoldSrc releases should be backwards compatible right now. For the 
best experience for your customers you would ideally offer access to a beta or 
main server. As Mr 1nsane said, I would expect the trend of beta's to continue.

Looks like you'll have to get used to that.That's going to be the trend going 
forward.
There's 3 or 4 versions of TF2 at the moment (including one pre steampipe) out 
there. All of them are listed on the server browser.
Other source games might have something similar as well.

"In general, I think our general policy is going to be to make all updates 
optional unless they need to be mandatory.  Unless we know that a server crash 
is really widespread, we probably will not release it as mandatory and impose 
the attending disruption on the whole community."

When will the next required versions of GoldSrc and its mods be released? With 
multiple optional versions out there and customers receiving different 
experiences as a result, it has become more difficult to support these games.

We have released an update for these 3 games, the changes include:
- Report bomb position more frequently to T team members when dropped, fixes it 
appearing at the wrong location on the radar
-Improved firing behavior in Counter-Strike, Counter-Strike:Condition Zero and 
Half-Life Deathmatch, it is no longer dependant on client or server frame rate. 
This change needs both your client and server updates to see the improvements.
-Added logging of developer messages when using -condebug
-Strip trailing and leading whitespace on player names, and strip all styles of 
whitespace now unicode is supported
-Don't keep playing the door open sound if it is blocked
-Force cl_bobcycle to be a minimum of 0.1 to prevent game exploits
- Fixed defuse bar staying up across round restart if you died while defusing 
without the defuse kit
- Fixed crash if you picked up a grenade in non-standard game styles

You can get a dedicated install for it by using the following command line:
steamcmd +logon anonymous +force_install_dir ..\hlds +app_update "90 -beta 
beta" +quit

Note you will need to use "+app_set_config 90 mod czero" before the +app_update 
command if you want to update condition zero.

This is an optional, but strongly encouraged due to the game fixes, update.
