In short:
Valve have hired the guy who's been leading the "Defense of the Ancients - Allstars" mod (for WC3) project.
Said person is now leading a team within Valve.
Massive speculation about Valve making an RTS game with the style of DotA.
Announcement soon.

My thoughts:
Sweeeeet!

I hadn't heard it, also the second article is new, figured it was worth a thread :P

Valve + RTS is a very interesting prospect for me :D

Heh, that HL2 wars mod was pretty cool, though it never seemed to be getting much done.

Don't worry the DOTA game type doesn't involve that much strategy. You only control one unit and it plays more like an RPG. Demigod is very similar and so are games like League of Legends and Heroes of Newerth (In beta I think)
