I think this is just a dump to GitHub and not connected to their internal stuff in any way.

Same with the Half-Life repo - when the 25th anniversary stuff was released it was just pushed as one mega-patch.

They have been ignoring almost all bugs in the goldsrc tracker for years.

This is just how valve works. Someone does a work on one of the games and will look at the bug tracker for a bit before eventually moving on.

I really really really doubt it. But hopefully someone can champion a community fork of the game which runs on Steam.
