On Wednesday April 14th we will be moving the HL2Master servers to a new set of 
IP addresses.  One of the major new features is the new Masters should return 
dedicated servers ordered by their geographical distance from the player 
requesting the server list, making for lower latency and better connections.

Dedicated server operators will generally have to restart their dedicated 
servers after this move to ensure they will correctly pick up the new addresses 
of the these Masters.  The server browser in the Steam client and in games such 
as Team Fortress 2 will automatically move to the new Masters.

Server operators that manually set their master servers (we recommend against 
this practice however) please use "hl2master.steampowered.com" to refer to them 
instead of the IPs directly. This name returns all Master addresses.

We will update once the move is complete.
