Does anyone know if the forthcoming Arctic theme is a sub-species of an
existing theme, or is it a whole new or semi-new animal, a la Rock • Raiders?

Artic is part of LEGO System Town and Rock Raiders is part of LEGO System
Underground.

Is it officially? I think there is nothing called "town" in current lego
range. Resq, Spaceport and extreme team sets are all supposed to be official
town sets (according to their product number range), but they are being
shown in same hierarchical level with town itself on www.lego.com.

I think Official Lego Product Classification is somehow different now
(w.r.t. the one in past). Actually, I might be inserting my nose to a
subject in which you have at least a bachelor's degree :-)), but this is
what I've seen when I've checked

http://www.lego.com/parents/overview/

and

http://www.lego.com/parents/overview/sysaction.asp


Especially the second one is interesting. There is still word "town"
mentioned, but since it also mentions divers (which means the page is at
least from last year) it most probably refers to Town Jr.

Further, town and other (supposed to be officially) town related themes
(like divers, Xtreme and Resq) are being mentioned as having the same
hierarchical level.

This is confusing...:-)
