Dragon #314 had this as the preview for their next issue:

CAMPAIGN CLASSICS - This special issue returns D&D gamers to their roots. We're presenting an article from nearly every D&D campaign ever produced, from Al-Qadim to Taladas. Each article takes some part of these campaigns settings and presents it updated for D&D 3.5. This issue also features a history of the D&D campaign settings by Stan!

Dragonlance by Jamie Chambers - This article gives you information on playing a draconian character, as well as some feat options for your favorite draconian.

Greyhawk by Erik Mona - Resident Greyhawk guru Erik Mona gives us dozens of regional feats for the Greyhawk setting, usable whether you play in Oerth or not.

Al-Qadim by Dean Poisso - The sha'ir class returns to D&D! Harness the power of magic through your gen with this new 20-level class.

Ravenloft by David Noonan - You fought Strahd in 1st Edition and 2nd Edition, now battle the most legendary vampire in D&D in revised 3rd Edition. Plus, revisit Castle Ravenloft with a brand-new map of Strahd's lair.

Kara-Tur by James Wyatt - This article provides ancestor feats and martial arts styles for the regions of Kara-Tur.

Red Steel by Frank Brunner - Witness the return of cinnabar and red steel, the affected, and tortles.

Plus, Blackmoor, Dark Sun, Planescape, Hollow World, and more!

*ponders* Not a clue here what they have in mind, I hadn't heard anything about it at all actually.

Well, here's to hoping that A) they do a decent job and don't give anything short shrift.

And B) They don't contradict anything we've got up already on Planewalker, or have in the works.

It seems though that Darksun and Planescape are both getting smaller articles, since they got listed almost as an aside at the end of that preview. However both DS and PS have official 3e conversion groups and sites. So maybe thats on purpose?

Dunno, we'll see I guess.

*crosses fingers and acts optimistic and upbeat, as opposed to the general fickle, self obsessed Arcanaloth as is typical*

Let's just hope they don't try to force anything.

New, in Dragon Magazine, an actual interview with the Lady of Pain!

Find out the enigmatic Lady's views on Sigil, the multiverse, and Mazing. Also, we have an exclusive scoop on why she's been seen frequently at dinner with the General of Gehenna!

...

Wait, that's my latest issue of Alternate Universe Weekly. Stupid AU magazine, it gets me confused all the time.

Here's what'll happen when that issue is finally released:

"We know that many of you were anticipating the interview with Her Serenity. Unfortunately, the interviewer we sent to Sigil has not been heard from since he left."
