Well, my main point is that even if the EW does exist in the GTU (which I think it does), it doesn't matter, as it won't do anything until 1200, which is 80 game years into the future.
As for the Timeline moving forward, no it doesn't seem to. But they do seem to be laying the groundwork for stuff in the Rim, that they will hopefully take advantage of at some point. (Who knows, maybe the Aldebaran sourcebook will have more in it than just Aldebaran. We can hope.)
And if today's TNS is any indication, some interesting things could start happening in the Marches, too.
