My crazy theory is that they'll just call the core, basic game 'Dungeons & Dragons' with no edition or anything, and they'll OGL it, or use some other license to give those rules to the world. Then they'll produce 'Advanced' supplements to flesh out the game. In this, crazy!, future, we could have people all playing D&D, but some are using the 'Third Edition' of the 'Advanced' rules, some are using the 'Fourth Edition' of those rules, and some are the first 'Advanced' set grognards, but the base, basic, core rules are all the same D&D rules being discussed now.  If they make the core simple and streamlined enough, the market could easily become filled with D&D: Dragon Age, or whatever, with a completly different suite of 'advanced rules' built atop the basic core. This (crazy) theory fits with the statements they've made about D&D belonging to the community and such.I hope this is how it goes down, but I think it's probably too crazy for the suits to get on board.
