Heh, Valve sure *have* been up to something. They just announced
shifting the Ep2 package into the summer of 2007. This means the release
dates have changed from 31st March 2007 to one of the following two:

* 31st August 2007
* 29th February 2008

Why two dates? The first is "summer 2007" on the Northern Hemisphere,
the other is "summer 2007/08" on the Southern Hemisphere. Oh, and 2008
is a leap year, so they have one additional day to work on it.

There's quite some time until 2007-08-31, so they probably might
implement the whole multithreading magic by then. And hell, I'm not
talking about the "Southern Hemisphere summer" loophole which would
enable them to release on 2008-02-29 and claim it's still "summer that
began in 2007 down under".

Anyways, I guess they do have enough time.

P.S. The dates obviously expect that on the NH, Spring is Mar/Apr/May,
Summer is Jun/Jul/Aug, Autumn is Sep/Oct/Nov and Winter is Dec/Jan/Feb,
with a 6-month shift on the SH. Somebody's gonna have to write an
"assert()" for this, though.

So actually according to the arstechnica article this is not coming to Ep 2
and so it's not coming to Source engine universally like for eg. CS:S, DOD:S
etc.?
