Or do you mean unofficial, because (I assume) it's fan-made. It's also made by just one person, obviously someone really talented. Xash3D allowed it to work perfectly, and incidentally the mod is amazing, I'd definitely recommend HL: Echoes to any Half-Life fan, it's brilliant. I haven't followed Xash3D's progress, and know nothing about it's history or status, I only downloaded it after reading about it when (a year or two ago) I was trying to get the fan-made mod Half Life: Echoes to work and it just wouldn't run on the genuine Half-Life game engine. How is it illegal? Is the source code stolen from Valve or something? It is disappointing if it is illegal, as I imagined it might lead to source ports for various non-PC platforms, as has happened with the fan-made ports of game engines like Doom, Quake, Duke Nukem 3D, Shadow Warrior 3D, Descent, etc. Xash3d's that illegal source port that unfortunately gets smartypantsed around as blind 'this update fixes hl' advice.
