The proposed license agreement calls for
WotC to continue tracking tournaments and DCI ranks for D&D Miniatures. Prize support will be handled by the Guild. Suggestions are welcome!

As well does it only apply for 2.0 DDM, or 1.0 as well?

I won't answer for our OP Lead, but our intention is to support both formats, and I don't see a reason why we can't use the DCI system to track both types of tournaments.

Also, for whomever; does it include stating of the new Heroes and Monster lines into DDM (1.0 or 2.0)?
|
The current group of freelance designers that is finishing the update of all sets to the 2.0 rules (see
Blood War for an example) has agreed to create 2.0 stats for the Heroes and Monsters lines going forward. It is unclear at this point as to whether a group is interested in creating 1.0 stats for the Heroes and Monsters line. As you mention, there is a group that is working on converting Dungeons of Dread, Against the Giants, and Demonweb back to the 1.0 rules. The Guild has yet to determine a process for sanctioning of that work.

Should WotC reclaim DDM skirmish game from the Guild, who will own the new stats? Will players get to keep the Guilds stats and use them in the future, or will all those stats and cards be redone by WotC, making people have to switch they way they play yet again?

Obviously, I can't speak for
WotC, but it's hard to envision a scenario in which the Guild is so successful that
WotC wants to produce the skirmish game again (and, yes, that would be the ultimate success), yet they'd want to undo all the work of the Guild. That dog don't hunt
And yet another word from our sponsors
