Funny, I was just thinking the same thing.
If it does, it means the SWRPG is still pumping blood through its veins -- in some way  .

Actually, if it's been moved from SWRPG to the Realms, wouldn't it be more accurate to say that the blood is pumping out of the veins |
There is a rumour going around that I have found god. I think is unlikely because I have enough difficulty finding my keys, and there is empirical evidence that they exist.

The five feats are now listed:
Heretic of the Faith
Prophet of the Divine
Bane of Infidels
Initiate of Amaunator
Rulership
As you might guess, most are from the religion chapter.

| It's interesting to note that Amaunator is becoming featured more and more prominently. |

You'll be able to use those, but we built off Leadership in a different, new way.

Because of the way the schedule order worked out, there's a significant spoiler for Book 3 of the Last Mythal trilogy in the sidebar on page 28 of Power of Faerun.
Be forewarned for those of you who don't like spoilers.

I wonder if this is part of Lathander's "great plan" as mentioned to his highest clergy in Faiths & Avatars? |

Some focus on Amaunator is good... as are details about ancient Netheril.
I wonder though just how far this metaplot, if there is one regarding Amaunator, intends to go...

I can't believe that we managed to work the word metaplot into a Realms conversation, and especially off an M:tA reference. |

Hey... what's wrong with that? So long as that is the only connection between M:tA and the Realms .

I'll call my FLGS tomorrow; going by past releases, Kent should have it in any day now. And now that I've finally gotten him to add my work email addy to his mailing list, I'll know right when it comes in! |

Oooh! I missed that. Thanks for the notice George .
I'm thinking a PoF web-enhancement might be too limiting though... perhaps the Border Kingdoms will feature as part of Ed's Realmslore articles?

They are talking about the second one that keeps getting pushed back. :) |
For some of us, books are as important as almost anything else on earth. What a miracle it is that out of these small, flat, rigid squares of paper unfolds world after world, worlds that sing to you, comfort and quiet and excite you... Books are full of the things that you don't get in real life - wonderful, lyrical language, for instance, right off the bat. - Anne Lamott, Bird by Bird

| We got one part, and the second part has (finally) been revealed to appear in March. (Or was it April? Curse this swiss cheese of a brain I have!!). |
There is a rumour going around that I have found god. I think is unlikely because I have enough difficulty finding my keys, and there is empirical evidence that they exist.

What does it cover?
Edit: There actually getting rather slack with the Web Enhancements
This week we finally got one for Stormwrack which came out in August 2005. There hasnt been a WE for any Wizards product released after August 2005
