No "real" officials involved.<br>
But as Tom said in an older mail to the topic, everyone can
publish blender to any platform he or she likes, as long Blender
gets maintained there.<br>
And till now no one forbid me to do this.<br>
<br>
And yes an official blender.org mail address would be nice but
the Contact e-mail is easy to change on a steam account.<br>
Also there is no need that the Blender foundation have to pay
the fee. I think it would be better used for the blender
development.<br>
If people really want Blender on Steam the 100$ should be there
in no time.<br>

<div>If it can't be waived, is there any chance that
the Blender Foundation would cover it? Or is this completely
a side project without any official support?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>If it comes to that I could throw in part of the fee as
well. And while I'm not much use with the programming side
(mostly listening in here), but I'd be happy to help with
maintaining the Steam page as well.</div>

<div>Since it's my first time posting on here, a quick
introduction is probably in order. I'm Will, day job is
engineering in Connecticut. I've been digging into Blender
and Unreal Engine as a hobby for a couple of months now.
It's a fantastic piece of software (especially given what
the alternatives cost), so if there's any way I can pitch
in, just let me know.</div>

be a nice touch.</div>
