Also there is new other stuff but this more important
 

That kind of sounds interesting. But I never actually got what it does and to what extent.
  
Edit: Now I read the text and it sounds even more interesting, but still. What/how/when?
I'm not really up to par when it comes to valve and their mysterious messages.

well thats cool

Wow,  I just jizzed in my pants.

I guess the real question now is whether or not this will allow us to somehow add bonuses to existing weapons (i.e. make a weapon with increased accuracy).

I'm still trying to figure out how I feel about it... I'm surprised Valve wasn't more specific about the capabilities of the crafting system in their blog post.  They absolutely knew that there would be all sort of theorizing and debating about it (and that the controversy would undoubtedly upset certain people).

Wait, there are items in TF2 now?

its good that they are finally using the inventory system for something but i'm very surprised that they haven't integrated an Experience points system considering how popular that has been in recent FPS games.
