Melandri and Hopkins will be team mates and I'm guessing Cappisrossi isn't going anywhere Whereas I've heard rumours that Spies will be joining Gresini.
Some offical gumph on Melandri Kwak Tie up, there is also a rumour that Jorge Martinez (Team Aspar) is looking to run a Kawasaki MotoGP team next year so there may yet be a seat for Ant West either there or WSB or WSS.

Seems I may have been wrong about Spies and the Greshini ride in fact any MotoGP seat, must be due to his riveting performances on the Rizzla Suzuki or it could be due to the fact he chickened out of the Assen ride when he was offered it due to Capirossi's condition.
