The following quote can be found on the new steam page, directing players to check the page regarding launch information, presumably meaning the blog post Valve released some weeks ago titled "Transitioning into launch mode".
Notice: Dota 2 is officially launching. In order to ensure the best possible experience for new and existing players, there may be a short wait for you to download the game. Visit the Dota 2 Launch page for more information about how the release process works.
More information was released on a special sub site 'Dota 2 - Beta is Over'. They released helpful F.A.Q's as well as directions for new players. Below are the highlights from what they released:
Dota 2's user base is already larger than any game we've ever made, and it continues to grow. Knowing this launch moment was coming, we've spent the past year working on getting both the backend infrastructure and new user experience into a state where we can welcome in anyone that wants to give the game a try. With that work now complete, it is time for us to invite anyone and everyone to come play.

Hopefully the Dota 2 beta has been as fun for you as it has been for us. While it has come to an end, we'll be building the game for a long time, and listening to what direction to take.
Worth noting that the FAQ mentions that the Mac and Linux builds for Dota 2 are currently being tested and will be available soon.
