As usual, there's a good batch of news to be had from London Expo, which was held over the past weekend. First up, some new announcements: BEEZ confirmed Code Geass and Sword of the Stranger, while Gurren Laggan made its first appearance in a very nice deluxe set. They also confirmed that their future series releases will be in three-volume format. MVM have been busy licensing as well, announcing GunParade March, Aquarion, X TV and Seirei no Moribito (Guardian of the Spirit), while Manga will be releasing Shigurui: Death Frenzy. Sky Crawlers and Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood (which they'll also be streaming online - more details when I get them). They also have a few Blu-ray titles in the works.
As for ADV and Revelation, expect them to continue milking their existing catalogues, but no new titles from either for the time being. The eagle-eyed will notice various FUNimation titles coming up from Manga and MVM, though, so fear not on the prospect of future FUNi releases.
