FAA ATP Conversion To JAA ATP...Rumours

Is there any substance to the rumours that there are talks of a more harmonious conversion from FAA ATP to the European JAA ATP?

I am hearing that there are talks of a "world" licence or a rotorcraft conversion that will not require all 13 written exams to be done - more like just the principle of flight and air law to be taken?

I currently hold the FAA ATP with 4000+ hours flying corporate medium twins IFR and am a little surprised that the only route available right now is for me to start from scratch again!

I have figured out that Bristol Ground School is a great place to study for the writtens if I have to go down the "start from scratch" route, but if any of you JAA pilots know of other avenues I need to explore in order to gain the conversion .......... please let me know,.

Thanks in advance for your help
