If anything I think WotC realized they made an error in judgement as far as campaign settings go, I further think this was aggravated by Eberron not being everything (sales wise) they thought it would be (NOTE: This is just my opinion).  Good and inventive settings can be succesful, especially when planned for longterm (over the course of years).  WotC wants a piece of that market now.Personally I would like to see WotC do an african based setting in the vein of Nyambe or Svimohzia from KoK.  This could really vibe with their core points of light motto.  This is probably unlikely, but I can hope.</blockquote>
