In the future dev releases we will add several new campaigns to mainline

originally commissions the Sceptre, but rather Haldric II, in 25 YW, who
does so, and that its completion only takes 15 years, not 25.

I would have trusted Turin's judgement on the matter,
but since he explained it, i agree the SoF version seems
to make more sense.
By all means, let HttT be changed to match SoF.
The a broader continuity is more valuable than
an unchanging HttT.
As for new campaigns, let's just make sure that
Okay, what is the status of this? Do we have some guidelines ready so
that I can announce this shortly after 1.3.2 (maybe this weekend)? For
what exactly should I ask in that announcement? Should I also ask for
general maintainers? Or just for campaigns?
Would be nice to get some comments...

It's now trivial to add or remove campaigns from mainline, rather than

STORY

rest of the wesnoth universe
I'd say at least not contradict the current universe
one remark : the wesnoth univers is mainly defined by the mainline
campaigns, so having more campaigns in mainline is also
I would be more liberal here. Only accepting campaigns with canonical
history is too constraining, after all UtBS doesn't fit this criterion.
I'd do it like this:

* if the story takes place in the world of Wesnoth, it should be
reasonably consistant
