Now i remember. The developers of mani-admin (i think it was them) had part of the Sourcecode hosted elsewhere. Valve kindly asked them to remove it. Most likely you cannot do that. Then again, this game is free of charge so it might be a tad different. E-mail Steam support and ask them.

It's propably the same as for other Source games. Free to use but selling
the things you do is not allowed. I also remember something along the lines
"redistributing the sourcecode is forbidden".

Yea that's the part I'm concerned about. Am I allowed to host the code on a
public repository server (eg, github.com)?

  It looks like the source code is included with the SDK. Now the next
question is, what software license applies to this source code?

hmm--from what I saw on the page, there may be a chance that somebody

get something going between Fedora's RPM Fusion, Arch Linux' Package

My understanding is that at least Fedora and Arch Linux tend to be very
good
at sending their patches up stream to well--Steam. (is assault for
autrocious
alliteration--AGAIN!)

As since it does not look like money is currently exchanging hands in
this
deal, there is no money for the RPM Fusion Project, Arch Linux and Debian
to
worry about getting back and forth. Though--since it is not free (well at
least not as in Free Speech--it is free beer)--it would need to be one of
the
nonfree and commercial repositories.

But then--I am silly.

Call me old fashioned but I would prefer to download working server from
Steam rather than compile anything myself.

I mean--call me even sillier, but I find it hard to think on how I

use a
SDK if there are no binaries to link against. And well--since no Linux
version
is available, and I did not think Wine currently allowed linking Linux
programs against Windows Binaries... I am going to say that the SDK


cannot

be
linked against on Linux.

Call me silly.

Now--if you meant, "the community can see what the Alien Swarm SDK is
suppose
to do, and make a work a like", then I would be in complete agreement


that

the
community could do that.

Not certain they'd really WANT to do that.

But they could do that.

If you would be so kind as to point it out to me I would gladly get

on it.

I think I speak for a lot of admins when I say that this is a
