Was that ever actually stated? In their interviews over the years I can’t recall ArenaNet ruling out additional races – they even indicated they’d consider them a few times. I just know nothing will happen anytime very soon.
Either way, anything DoW-related would probably have to wait until Miss Scarlet has had her day… 
I’d probably be happier if they worked on it behind the scenes for a while before actually releasing anything so it could be done justice. It needs a new architectural style, probably a whole bunch more armor/weapon skins, not to mention they’re going to need a lot more than one character model, one voice, and two skins to make tengu seem like a real race rather than the world’s biggest copypasta job. Oh, which reminds me, the animations would also need to not be pretty much copied from charr.
Honestly though, I’d rather wait another three years and get something playable than one and wind up with just NPCs again. We already got that in GW1

You sound reasonable. The problem is, this game is not really going to attract anyone for another 3 years with its below-average LS content… It’s already 1.5 years old and nothing “big” has happened so far, although I liked some additions.
Hmm… true, I can’t see the present model working indefinitely without doing something big. There are other options than opening the Dominion for that, though – the most obvious involving some dragons I hear are still out there
