so yes STEAM & SOURCE games for linux do seem to be on their roadmap but just shelved indefinitely

Gabe never said "we're not doing one so leave us alone about this." In fact, he said that they wanted to have a Linux client.
...Then again he mentioned that he says a lot of things and can't remember them all, too.

Manpower is a problem and so what do you do when you lack too much manpower to get shit done? You hire. Valve hired Linux devs, while they already had enough manpower for Linux server client development.
And what else? The teams behind Postal III say they want a Linux client. Well... The Source engine is developped by whom? Valve?
So still no clear-, hard evidence as to if Steam is comming to Linux or not.
