New Warhammer 40K game?

I just spent the past few otherwise uneventful days beating the campaign in Dawn of War: Dark Crusade. (Quite fun, if you enjoy large amounts of wanton gore.)

Anyway, after the credits roll, there is a short video zooming out from the planet of Kronos, showing several other planets, with large explosions on their surfaces now and again, indicating large-scale warfare. All else that is apparent is the "Relic" logo and "2007."

So, I was wondering, since this is the largest collection of internet rats I know of: has anyone picked up any news on a new 40K game, possibly (god willing) an interplanetary campaign style game, or (as I would more expect) a new "Dawn of War" style game, taking place on more than one planet?

Could be anything:

I figured they symbolized the first three games but who knows. I only have the first one, and I have only played the demo of the 2nd. I couldn't tell ya.

Yeah, that's the one.

Come to think of it, it'll probably be a major letdown. These things always are.

But since when has one of the add-ons for Dawn of War been bad?

That video is about all I've heard about it too.

On the Relic forums, there have been rumors of a DoW2 for over a year now. Newer engine, snazzier graphics, etc. Don't know how much truth is behind any of it though.
