Michael can it be possible to add PTS in steam repo? There are enough people here who can vote it through Greenlight. There may be open PTS with xterm. So you can test SteamOS without going through Gnome Desktop Mode. And if we can bundle php and other necessary libs, it will be totally hassle free install for any end user. Many game related softwares(mostly windows I know) deliver there software also through Steam so I think this will be a good step for PTS.
