It's probably just a matter of workflow for who they have working on these books' conversions – this end of the document conversion being simpler work than the whole job of reworking the books in the first place, but there's still lots of man-hours for each volume (especially given that each of these should prove to be an "evergreen" release).At least we have some better idea of what WotC has been up to. It makes sense, of course, that they AREN'T going to make huge noise of "new" releases of old product if the current 5e release cycle is deliberately small (given the noise some are making about it).</blockquote>
