Nope not any time soon the last thing I heard.

The release from 2008 is:
Mordor
Daemons in May
June will see 5th Ed I belive
Dark Elfs are coming out some point
5th Ed box game ment to come out around Aug/Sept
Re-dux Marines is happing now (even though I was told other wise in Oct, but hay GW can & will push thing forward or back as Orks & Eldar were both ment to come out in 2006)
Then end of the year ment to be Chaos for WFB (Mortals) due to the Daemons are going to be redundant from the current mortal Chaos army.

Might be a few moew LotR stuff in there as well, just listing once from top of my head that I seen on warsee or been told.

2009 ment to see Dark Eldar (Gav T left half way through this project)
Space Wolves I've been hearing a bit about that (well not to much)

Necrons if anything would likey be end of next year or start the year after that. All I rememeber was the Games Dev wrtoe a bit in a GW news letter when codex Necron was release just saying that the current codex is more the raiding force. When they do get up-date you'll see a lot more scary things & a few new units.

But right now IMO Necrons are pretty well as a army it self. Though a few thing need switch say like Flayed once as troops & possible rending or just somthing make them a little bit better in Combat.

Rumours wise all that been said is
Slow rule like the Oblits get
Feel No Pain to fit in more with the overall rules, like orks loss there waahh & now take F Charge instead just because it is in the main rule book (& possible other reason said in WD by Games Dev)

In fact I'll talk to Jervis J that Conflict Scotland in two weeks time & see what happing & see if he rememeber me from the GT.

Yeah, I've got my fingers crossed for some really terrifying 'harvester' units, and possibly some flavour rules similar to Doctrines/Traits for Necron servants of particular C'tan. For example, an army of Necrons belonging to the Dragon may be able to upgrade one Elites unit with Lightning Fields, and Necron Lords belonging to the Nightbringer have to take a Nightmare Shroud, but it doesn't count towards their 100pts Wargear limit.

I doubt it, it seems that in the new, "simpler" 40k things like traits and doctrines are being removed, (too confusing I guess)
