CBR's latest X-Position column has a question and answer with X-Men: Legacy writer Mike Carey. He says that in the series there will be a meeting between Rogue and the newly-resurrected Destiny:
Q: And are there any plans for Rogue to face Mystique and her Dark X-Men in "Legacy"? It's a mother/daughter reunion I'm eager to see!
A: We have a different mother/daughter reunion planned in the near future – same daughter, different mother. It's great that Mystique is back in play though, and that would be a very cool scene to write.
For what it's worth, Destiny has already made a cameo appearance in X-Force #19.
Other news: Pyro and Mystique will appear in the new Superhero Squad cartoon (which is very much aimed at kids).

CBR has a solicitation preview for May, including the Uncanny X-Men #510 issue which shows Spiral on the cover.
Also, two new Blob figures have been announced --- a cute little Superhero Squad version, and a rather ugly larger one (I'm not sure what size it is). The larger one is part of the Wolverine movie line, but is actually of his comics incarnation (Hasbro seems to be making movie versions and comic versions of the Wolverine movie characters). You can see a gallery of upcoming figures, including the ugly Blob, here.
