Good news everyone!

Here is the official blog post from Valve regarding the development of Steam for Linux. It seems that the first game available will be Left 4 Dead 2 as it is already natively running on Ubuntu 12.04.

There are currently no mention of third-party Linux support through Steam, but it's obvious that this will happen. Many indie developers already support Linux and Steam will make the distribution only easier.

They also speak about open source in their post, and this leaves me wondering if they simply meant that their software will be available on an open source operating system, or if they actually intend to open source some of their software. This isn't too far fetch since they already rely on the community to keep making content for Team Fortress 2 as well as Dota 2, which they push with their own update.
