Metamod:source has been released in a beta version (1.8). The main thing for us is that left 4 Dead 2 demo is supported. i have installed it on our demo servers. Sourcemod is a separate effort and there is no working SM at the moment.
Read all the details here.
The servers are updating now. Seems like Valve restore the motd.txt and host.txt every update so far. Hopefully that will change with the real release. They have also fixed so that -autoupdate works again on the dedicated server. There is no need to specify a default map anymore.
Updates to Left 4 Dead 2 Demo have been released. The updates will be applied automatically when your Steam client is restarted. The major changes include:
