I understood that Earthdawn was going to be designed under the GSL as a 4e compatible setting. Is this still the case. The Earthdawn Third Edition notation above confused me.

Yes.
Earthdawn Third Edition and it's 4E setting are two different product lines from RedBrick.
The 4E line of Earthdawn products is the "Age of Legend 4e" line mentioned in Matt's release.
Earthdawn Third Edition will be based on the original Earthdawn system.

Thanks!

Is there an Age of Legend 4e street date yet?

To give it to you straight from the horse's mouth:

Hi,

Once we have dates for the initial AoL4e product releases, they will appear as part of Mongoose's release schedule. At time of writing, we are aiming for Q4 2009 for the first products. However, there is a lot of ground to cover across multiple game lines now that we are with Flaming Cobra, so this year will be fairly insane, work-wise.

Regardless of final schedule, we are aiming to provide fans with an idea of what's coming up in the next few months.

Kind regards, James
