I guess it makes sense since i think Turtle rock studios did most of the bot code for cs:s and cscz. So im not sure if valve will release it :]
There is already a basic bot framework in the SDK, isn't there?
I doubt Valve would ever do such thing! :roll:
the CS Bot AI is really awesome, they're not gonna let it go anytime soon 
:v .
when i read the topic i was mentally prepared to storm right in here and make fun of everyone who thinks petitions have EVER accomplished ANYTHING.
but valve have just open sourced steam right ? ( more or less) so who knows maybe they will do it 
Whilst I agree it would probably be a good thing for the community as a whole, I highly doubt it would ever happen, at least not until the next generation of their AI had been written and released. It's tantamount to giving away part of your intellectual property for free. It would certainly be taken by other independent developers, cosmetically altered then shipped as their own. Once compiled it would be hard for Valve to prove it's use by a third party.
So whilst I applaud the initiative, I think its futile.
