So would I, honestly, but after Alfred's comment from awhile back, I was
just a bit confused since the wording of that March announcement is kind
of contradictory to something I read on this list.

The Steam News update back in March specifically said...
"we will be logging cheating violations into our database to make sure
it's
ready for general release. "

Since they updated HL1 code last week to prepare for the release of VAC2,
I'd expect to see VAC2 released by the end of the month.

Yeah, that'd be what I thought after the "Imminently" line, but that
seems to not be the case these days.

That, and I'm fairly sure I remember seeing Alfred comment that cheat
detection was coming up, not already completed - which is why I'm asking
so that I can find out what's going on. =]

Well there was an email from Doug Lombardi a couple weeks ago saying
release
was 'Imminent'. I'de have to guess from that, that the connectivity
issues
are the last major item to sort out. Detection testing must already be
complete, if it wasn't and they were starting it after the connectivity
issues, there's no way that the release could be 'imminent'. But
this is
all
speculation on my part.....

Apologies if I've somehow missed this in an earlier message from
someone
else (or Alfred, even), but the last I knew of VAC2, it was still in
connectivity testing.  This was several weeks, I believe, before the
recent update that seems to have expanded the beta to 1.6.

So, where exactly are we with the beta test?  Still connectivity, or
have we moved along to cheat detection testing?

Just curious to see how it's progressing.
