Is MSS soon to be WDA?

Was just looking throught the slides from TechEd 2010 session CD105 when I came across an interesting screenshot in the section on Local Page Builder. Around about page 80 there is what appears to be a new MSS screen with components like "My Team" etc on the page.

Now wondering if we are going to see a transition of MSS to ABAP Webdynpro in the near future, with ERP EhP5 and NW EhP2 maybe???

I have also heard the samething that from next release onwards ESS and MSS both will be in WDA.

Yes, ESS and MSS are largely being rewritten in Web Dynpro ABAP. There might be some vary rarely used parts that aren't converted, but the goal is to get most of it eventually converted. A large part of this conversion did take place in ERP 6.0 Enp5 (NetWeaver 7.02) with a focus on ESS. There will be further converstion work done in ERP 6.0 Enhp 6 (2011 delivery).
