The headline is misleading, but the body text is clear:

"experimental support for Valve's Steam Linux client"

i.e. it's the *support* that's experimental, not the client. I imagine the client's just the same one everyone else has, and its integration into Kororaa is the thing that's experimental.

Another note, Michael: Cinnamon is already available in stock F18, it's not an 'improvement' in Kororaa. (It's only in the repos, though, not on the DVD).
