Developers' Notes for the next CABAL update: Legacy of Darkness:

These are only Developers' Notes. This means that while the information
contained here is accurate it might also change, and some features might
be added or removed before the update goes live on our servers.

Also, there is NO RELEASE DATE YET. There is no point in asking when it will go live.

Please remember that these notes are LIABLE TO CHANGE. They still have
to go through a number of tests (during which it is almost guaranteed
that some parts will change).
