It does seem, however, that a lot of questions are repetitive/redundant, or otherwise give out little new or unexpected information (Not including some of the really bad backstory question/answer combinations.)

If it weren't for us you wouldn't be playing all those nice maps that are out there. You'd be stuck with just plain, old, boring melee maps! As for the zerg - isn't it obvious? SC2 and protoss in Korea, Terran on Blizzcon, Blizz WWI '08 coming up - do you follow me? :P F*ck all, I’m a map maker, this is important to me.

Another one for the next batch:

“Will there be new tileset, say all creep, for map making? Will the zerg build anywhere in this case then?”

At least we'll finally get some info about the Zerg... "Will map makers be able to rename units in their maps?" Yes, that feature will be supported. LoL @ Dill.

At least we’ll finally get some info about the Zerg…

For those who doesn't know how to script, will there be presets and/or simpler ways to make triggers? 3. Will you be able to customize unit-models and such? these questions sucks. they could’ve all been compiled into like 3 questions, or no questions at all, since most of the important stuff has been mentioned: it will be more versitile than the wc3(tft) map editor.

As for zerg, I figure I'll just wait for the several months until it comes out fully. More information on how the single player campaign will work would also be interesting (How the protoss and zerg areas are set up, how they get unit upgrades, etc.) For some people, map making will be important, so it makes sense that it would get addressed at some point.
