Whats the future of LMP's at Le Mans??

Yesterday, I went to a book store and picked up a Racecar Engineering magazine. One of the stories discussed the future of the LMP's at Le Mans. The article interviewed some engineers of some the past LMPs and what they thought could become of the class. Some think that GTS will take over to fight for overall, like in the 1950s. Others said that it will take time for the rules to set in before major manufactures come back with LMPS for outrght wins at Le Mans. 2004 and 2005 are being called "the transition years", as for 2006 will be the year to showcase new "works" LMPs at LM. I think that the LMP class will survive for the future races with Audi entering a "works" R9 for 2005 to be followed by other manufactures in 2006. What do you think will happen??!
