Since VGUI2 reference code is now available to owners of HL2, would it be
possible to also release the original version of VGUI's source under the HL1
SDK license?

Alternately, if VGUI2 is compatible with HL1 (it appears that this may be
the case from the quote below), could VGUI2 be released under a license
permitting use in a HL1 mod?

Quoted from the list, Feb 16, 2004:

"VGUI (Valve GUI btw) has been rewritten, and like a caterpillar emerges
from its cocoon to become a butterfly so has VGUI morphed into the
beautiful VGUI2. We use VGUI2 for both the in game and out of game UI
(i.e the steam windows on the desktop). It is also being used in the HL2
engine.

The next SDK release will include VGUI2 so everyone can use it (note
that you can use one or the other, VGUI or VGUI2, so to switch you need
to convert your whole mod to VGUI2). The next SDK will be released when
its done (and when the VGUI2 interfaces are rock solid)."  -Alfred

Thanks,
Karl (still in HL1 land!)

vgui_controls.vcproj contains all these files. If you want to change the
base vgui behavior you can edit these files and use the vcproj to
rebuild the library.

Note that if you do this you do it at your own risk (as we will be
changing this library over time), the code it meant as a reference
rather than a working code base.

The correct way to alter VGUI2 behavior is to override the base class,
see the client dll code for examples.
