Henrik has let a little more information about about one of the things from the Dawn expansion that really hasn't been talked about before: Tasks.
He gave out some of this info when discussing the entire UI:
"Then there are areas that does not tie to inventory, hotbar etc, UI that Paratus mention, a lot of that is fully Flash GUI and is coming in Dawn. For instance, house control GUI, Task system, noteboards, tutorial system etc, those are fully built on flash GUI because we were not forced to tie it into inventory UE3 GUI."

When asked to provide a little more information, he had this to say:

Task in Dawn is completely different, it's something I think most people will enjoy, new players will also have something to start out with doing some "jobs" for other players. It is of course also available/profitable for veterans that will benefit and may find this interesting. This similar system exists in Eve online actually, a brilliant system we will expand on. __________________  |

So, it looks like some type of task or contract system similar to the one in EvE, which is something that many in the community have been asking for.
They'll likely be updating the Dawn expansion page soon to add some of the other things that will also be included.

It's coming in Dawn.
Player will have a new interface to add requests/tasks for other players to accept for a fee, tax is included in this sytem. When the task been delivered the payment gets paid. This is it in short, we will go through it more in detail later on, I think Opal will go through it. So for instance you can see someone requesting resources in a city that is far from that resource, if you happend to have the transport mounts for it and you are going near that location you may wanna accept that task as well. It can be used in a few different ways.
