We are planning on releasing the HL2DM source code but don't have a date for it right now.

I worked on and complete a hl1 mod for two years. I became very efficient with that SDK and so far, hl2 seems very similar. If I need to learn anything, its the new entity structure and some new variable names and vgui 2.0. Other than that I just want to improve hldm2. My entire hl1 mod was aimed at improving hldm1 and we developed lots of robust features that we would like to incorporated into hldm2 before it gets boring and dies out. With only 2 maps and and no features, the mod (hldm2) as it stands is pretty bare, and valve would do itself justice by realising the SDK to the experience programmers who have the motivation and enthusiasm to help the game. I don't want the SDK to learn. I did that, I want the SDK to make hl2dm worthy of its name.
