[Glorantha] Re: HeroQuest going out of print?

I was in my FLGS the other day (picking up a copy of MRQ) and Liam, the owner, was quizzing me on the status of HQ. The two rumours he had heard were:

1. HQ was only being published in pdf format (I corrected him on that)
2. The bigger games stores and distributors were not getting in HQ supplements because they couldn't get hold of the main rulebook. Which I believe is being re-printed by Moon Design as we speak?
