Could be, but the problem remains that if the hl mod code has to be re-written from scratch it won't "feel" the same as the original.
It could be close, but those who would play it again under a new engine would notice a difference.

Though quake3 would have a lot of bugs fixed since quake1 it would really increase the system requirements, that and having to rip out the md3 code and put in hl's mdl system.

Either way its a lot of work and I'm starting to wonder if its possible to re-write the game code close enough to feel like the orignal hl.
