From all I know, and I got this info from other people who would know...

It's a Small to Mid-sized global RWD platform. Developed in NA, it's going to be a decendant of Zeta (changes, but all for the better). Think, baby-Zeta. Supposedly, the wheels are pushed all the way to the corners.

It was conceived of to hold vehicles (sedans, coupes, possibly hatchbacks; think baby-Zeta) that would directly target BMW's 3 series; hence the baby-Caddy. And at first, it was only expected to hold the Ecotec's, but a V6 is more than possible for a High-Featue engine. A V8 isn't expected to make it, however. It COULD, but it would negatively effect handling, and wieght distribution, etc.

Besides that little V8 wrinkle...from what little has been heard about the platform, it's seems like a GREAT candidate for a 6th gen Camaro. A smaller mid-sized coupe with a low wieght(again, think 3-series), which will contribute greatly to handling, and power to weight ratio. That's all I know...if there's a certain someone who would like to add to this, please do.
