I highly doubt Valve would put a GPL game on steam.
and it ends here.

Well America's Army 3 was on there for free, due to its terrible release sales.

I guess it wouldn't hurt to send an email and ask?

Well I'm not really in any position of authority in the project being just a fan, so I'm not sure it would be wise for me to speak on behalf of it.

Well, the great thing about an open-source project is that there's no real "position of authority". I mean, sure, I've written more lines of code than you, but Per's written more lines of code than I. And there are other ways of helping out than just writing code - petitioning Valve for inclusion in Steam definitely counts.

My point is, we all have authority here. Feel free to mention that you represent us in your e-mail to them (but only if you post the e-mail here, preferably before you send it).
