Well, I think I saw this bit of news on Blue's News, but I wouldn't take it as much more than rumor atm.
As I understand it, TF2 is using a heavily modified version of the HL engine (to add some new skeletal animation system, forget the name), and HL2 is going to use a modified version of the TF2 engine. No rewrite for the Q3, just an updated version of their heavily modified Q2 engine...
But hey, I could be wrong, it has happened before =)
Actually, FR is the "official" world at the moment. Greyhawk isn't even in publication anymore last I checked (tho WotC said they were gonna res it). Go to a gaming store and take a look. Most of what you will find is the FR boxed set, faiths & avatars (FR), demihuman deities (FR), powers & pantheons (FR), etc. I don't even think the Dragonlance sets are in publication anymore.
3rd edition, as I understand it, is going to work in much of the Skill & Powers/Combat & Tactics/Spells & Magic rules from 2nd edition, and move the default world back to Greyhawk. They haven't released much info on it thusfar unfortunatly.
