    Possibly

    That is the latest NJO list from starwars.com

    However I think Force Heretic will be the concluding trilogy

    I don't know :p

    I'm guessing when Episode III comes out, there'll be books occurring between II and III

    There should be one paperback and one hardcover after the list that was given above. And for now, we don't know if anything is planned after NJO. But it is a safe bet the authors will extensively develop the prequel era, at least.

    If you mean chronologically, I don't know.

    If you mean published, definitely. I believe Del Rey's contract runs through 2005? Somebody correct me if I'm wrong.

    Found something interesting...

    "In October 1999, Del Rey released Vector Prime by R.A. Salvatore, the first of 22 planned novels in a series called The New Jedi Order. For The New Jedi Order, Del Rey and Lucasfilm responded to fan's requests for a well-planned story line overarching the entire series, books released in the chronological order they appear on the timeline, significant and lasting consequences for the heroes, and the ability to follow each book or just selected titles."
    - http://www.starwars.com/eu/news/1999/12/news19991202.html

    As I posted above they already have 17 planned books, 9 which have been already released... for those who can't be bothered to scroll up:

    1. Vector Prime, by R. A. Salvatore.
    2. Dark Tide I: Onslaught, by Michael A. Stackpole

    4. Agents of Chaos I: Hero's Trial, by James Luceno
    5. Agents of Chaos II: Jedi Eclipse, by James Luceno
    6. Balance Point, by Kathy Tyers
    7. Edge of Victory I: Conquest, by Greg Keyes
    8. Edge of Victory II: Rebirth, by Greg Keyes
    9. Star by Star, by Troy Denning
    10. Dark Journey, by Elaine Cunningham (Feb 2002, paperback)
    11. Enemy Lines I: Rebel Dream by Aaron Allston (Apr 2002, paperback)
    12. Enemy Lines II: Rebel Stand by Aaron Allston (Aug 2002, paperback)

    Those are the books with known authors and titles. There's still another paperback, which will be followed by the final hardcover.

    After that, we'll probably have several prequel novels. Del Rey is planning to have two or more books between every two movies.

    There has been some books canceled (the Knightfall Trilogy, for example) since.
    But NJO will be finish with the 5th hardcover (just after the Force Heretic Trilogy).

    The real question is, will they continue on with the NJO era after the NJO series is complete? By which I mean, new books and stories featuring the Twins, etc. after HC#5, or maybe some stories filling in events during the 5 years, as Gamer seems to be doing...
