From what I am reading the reasons DOD Source is not in the retail packages are:
A: It's not done yet (obviously)
B: Activision holds the rights to DOD on disk. They were the publishers for the original DOD retail version so when it does come out on disk it would be seperate purchase.
They can put it out on Steam with no problems since they don't have to deal with any publisher issues.
None of this is a total surprise as they have said all along that it would no longer be free. I would expect the same thing when TFC gets the Source treatment. CS Source was originally going to be a seperate purchase until recently when they decided to include it with HL2.
In reality I guess they had to include it since HL2 has no multiplayer option.
