I don't expect any of that to happen however.
Personally I'm hoping against hope to see the LoY zones (almost as is, but maybe tweaked a little) brought in here. IMHO that expansion was a failure to Live players for the exact reasons that I think it would be a great expansion here (it was all for "low level" characters ... ie. 1-60 without AA).

However, as I mentioned, one of the devs (I forget which one, sorry, you'll have to dig) came out and said that custom content won't be any new re-creations. Re-creations take extra effort: the devs have to do a ton of research and such that they don't need to do with their own creations.

I get the sense that the custom content is in some way a reward to the devs themselves: after ten years of re-creating classic, they now get to have some fun and "invent some classic". Re-creating live Veksar or LoY zones, as much as we all might like to play in them, probably wouldn't be as fun for them.
