One thing however, it seems as if I have heard of some of these meta-orgs as previous adventuring companies. Does the strength of a Adco, have anything to do with pormoting into a offical meta org? Just wondering.
Adventuring Companies are their own org. If some players had a company under the old rules where they were all members of a specific organization as well, that was entirely unrelated to our making it a full blown org. These orgs are all ones we have and will use in upcoming stories.

Aside from meta-orgs which tie into the Year 3 story areas, we have the Gentle Fellowship, the Knights of Myth Drannor and Knights of the Golden Rooster. The first two are easy enough for future adventures to tie into, but I'm curious as to whether the addition of the latter means that we're going to see future adventures set in or connected to Ravens Bluff.
The answer is yes. There is a core in the works right now, and the possibility of others exists.

Looks generally very good. Some questions.
Dusk Talons: Does the freedom from imprisonment happen immediately?
Knights of the Golden Rooster: When gaining a +1 to attack when spending an action point, does that just apply to the action point? Should have a time constraint to be clear.
Knights of Myth Drannor: Isn't Evermeet is also an Eladrin Kingdom(if somewhat non-existant) - this specifically comes up with one of my characters who is an Evermeet Warlock who is also a Knight of Myth Drannor. Also, there's a misspelling of Elves in 'non-drow eleves'
The Order of Torm: How would a PC have more than a single deity?
Good notes. I will look to clarify them.

To be clear, an Unaligned Elf/Eladrin could not join the Knights of Myth Drannor meta-org, but could still gain the titles associated with the story awards? Or are they just Honorary Knights, like non-Elves?
You are Honory knights with honory titles and rank. You can't join the meta-org and gain the mechanical benefits.

I am also disappointed about the lack of a Cormyr meta-org. The Cormyr storyline was one of the best, well-developed regions and it would be a shame to just see it disappear completely.
So now that Cormyr's story is finished, would you like to still be in a Cormyr org (remembering that it precludes membership in other orgs), even though there are no more Cormyr adventures coming out (at least none are currently planned)?

Placeholder for Returned Abeir, but not for Calimshan?
Opps, that was just an oversight. There should also be a placeholder for Calimshan.

Perhaps there could be 'exarch' orgs? i.e. the Cormyr Org is an exarch to the Harper Org with all the limitations of both. That might let people make up meta-orgs that are subservient to the primary actual organization, yet have player driven flavor(that still can't override the primary one)

I would. Absolutely. Totally. Yes please.

Some people would, just for RP reasons. Others probably would depending on the non-Cormyr specific benefits (say, access to magic items/grandmaster training). Lastly, it would encourage people to play through the Cormyr mods prior to their being retired.
I think those are all decent reasons to create at least one Cormyrean meta-org.

My main question is related to the 'once per year, you can be raised' benefit for both the Heirs of Mirt and the Stellar Fellowship:
1) Is this a 'free' raise in the sense that it counts as 'using a power that returns dead characters to life', and that ability can only be used once per year? (Based on the text for the Heirs of Mirt, I'd say 'no', but wanted to be sure.)
2) Is this instead just a limitation on the generic 'healing at cost' to say that being raised from the dead doesn't count as 'healing' and thus the discount can only be used for the raise dead ritual once per year?
