In probably the most widely foreseen up-date of the day, Shueisha has announced a reissuing of Death Note manga in 10th anniversary editions.
Whole new legions of Death Note fans will be created (and decade old ones persuaded to part with their money to maintain their collections) with the same story told over seven volumes.
As an added incentive, the books will include limited edition goodies like a 'Kira Card' (similar to that of L in How To Read Volume 13), and apparently a composite pull out poster too.
Readers will have to purchase all seven volumes in order to complete their montage poster of Death Note characters.

To my mind, this is highly unnecessary given that we've already got the original Death Note manga, plus the Black Editions, plus the limited edition reissues which came out with the collectors' items figures... need I go on?
But if you're tempted anyway, the first two 10th Anniversary Edition Death Note manga volumes will be in Japanese stores on March 18th 2014.
No doubt they will then swiftly be translated into every other language, shortly to be on international bookshelves too.
