Well ... the Redwyne Inn will be in 0.4 anyway, as would be some of the
characters. So it wouldn't be a big deal to remake Waste's Edge. I think
we even talked about that at the summer meeting.

But as Alex said, TTF will come to 0.3 too, so the translation won't be
wasted. Whether Waste's Edge will be ported to 0.4 or not will mainly
depend on the time we have. Guess it won't take a single person longer
than a week to write new schedule scripts, and that's basically all
needed, as the map will be there anyway.
