Subject: Re: [hlds_linux] TF2 update released during Steam maintenance?

I believe the advertised "regular" maintenance window for Steam is 4:00 PM
(Pacific) every Tuesday.
Of course, they don't always get started right at 4:00 PM.
The TF2 release was announced at 4:26 PM (Pacific).
Yes, to be fair, today they apparently did not get started on the Steam
maintenance until 4:54 PM (Pacific).

Basically, my point being ... why would you release something that EVERYBODY
has to download and apply, during (even or approaching) the
regularly-scheduled maintenance window for the system that provides the
download/update function?

It's like saying, "hey everyone! download and apply this mandatory fix
immediately!" ... then laughing and saying "you didn't think you could
actually DO that now? did you?.... ha-ha-ha, DENIED!"

Anyway, it's just a game I guess.  So, not really upset.
Just thought it was ... eh ... un-coordinated.
