Rumoured Blizzard's New Battle.net Version

There are some rumours circulating about Battle.net 2.0, and while some of these might be too far out there to even mention, a few are worth noting as they show what we should be prepared for in the new network version. One rumour state that the new Battle.net regime will be on new servers, and in no way related to the old network; Diablo II and Diablo III players would then not be able to chat over the ingame interface. The logical support for this rumour would be that Blizzard treat games in this manner; they support the game in the form it had at of release for a long time to make sure that everything works fine without bugs or major imbalances and then also make the next game better. WoW is the obvious exception, which get major content updates regularly. Diablo II got a large content patch after release, but for the most part, each game is treated in its own right.
