Quarter to Three gives us the skinny on how Blizzard's Warcraft III is shaping up with an interview with Bill Roper. Seems they are near the final stages of production, with unit balancing, design specs mostly completed and now working on bugs, unit stats, final gameplay decisions and polish. Here's some about the level editor possibly being included:

Q: Will the Warcraft 3 editor ship with the ability to create new graphics for the game?

A: We’re still discussing that. We don’t know yet, but we’re leaning towards supporting it. The editor will be full-featured and easy to use. We like to see our fans get extra value from our games.

Q: So would Blizzard be upset if fans make Warcraft 3 mods that are designed to replicate Warcraft and Warcraft 2?

A: If people want to make their own mods or total conversions, as long as it's the community doing it for the community, that’s great. We don’t want someone to sell it, though. So yeah, if you want to go and make Warcraft 2, that’s great. We're happy with that. That's really helping the game along and really what it's all about. The editor’s there so you can go have fun with other people who buy the game.
