The studio has some fantastic news for you today as they have just announced that an external beta will begin next week, with a private external beta for another 1,000 users beginning in October.
In order to be considered for the beta, Linux users will simply need to sign up on a page that has yet to go public. More information about signing up will be revealed in a future Valve Linux blog post.
