I have a couple of questions.
I'm not sure what Winchgate has in mind but I'm pretty sure it is 2X current experience rates.
I think it was mentioned but this was one of our (Ryzom Core) Summer of Code students. You can see his status reports here:

His actual source code here:

And his blog, which contains some screenshots, here:

I talk about this and other Summer of Code projects at their mid-term on the Ryzom Core developer blog:

I believe this is true as this is all static level design data and isn't subject to the same "merger" challenges imposed by the code.

Paying players are going to get 2X exp that F2P players get
but is that paying players gettng 2X current exp or F2P getting 50% of current exp?
Its a big difference, if 2X current for paying players then getting master skills will be a lot easier than now.
I'm not sure what Winchgate has in mind but I'm pretty sure it is 2X current experience rates.

Achievement System? -- any details of exactly what that will be?

Are all the other game elements going to be ingame as they are now -- skills, occupations,
adv occupations, fame system, faction points, encyclopedia, missions, etc.... ?
