If your auto update process is waiting for the notification from the master server that a new version is available, everything will work the same as before. If you are using the WebAPI to poll for out of date, it will also work the same as before.
We're just making the next version available a little in advance of the client. Many members of the distribution list have been asking for us to do this for quite some time. The email is currently the only way we have to let people know that it's available for download.

The dedicated server update is now available for you to download ahead of time... For those of us that have automated systems that look at these announcements and check for updates, this sort of pre-release can cause servers to be upgraded too soon and kick a lot of clients who then cannot reconnect. It may be better to send out pre-releases under the optional update channel, or with some sort of other special tag. -John _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds
