Well, getting a little closer .... according to Steam Support Twitter account, they finished the Steam maintenance at 5:00 PM (Pacific). My Asia/Pacific region servers won't update yet, but North America seems like it's trying to at least.
Asia/Pacific server is throwing a time-out. I'll assume this is all load-related (now that Steam is back up again, everybody trying to update) and just keep trying. ....................... something-other-than-root@host2:~/steamcmd$ ./steamcmd.sh ./steamcmd.sh: line 11: ulimit: open files: cannot modify limit: Operation not permitted Redirecting stderr to '/home/something-other-than-root/Steam/logs/stderr.txt' [ 0%] Checking for available updates...
