LGA2011 Skylake CPUs and X109 chipset?

I was wondering if Intel release a Skylake-based LGA2011 CPU and "X109" chipset. Will it become a reality in the future?

When did they ever make new chipset backward compatible ? pretty sure you will have to buy a new mobo for those .

Only socket 2011 currently exists (Out of the 2 things mentioned, the chipset is intentionally fictional), and there are like 3 versions, so the new one would likely be called LGA 2011-4.

The LGA 2011 socket is proving to be quite the long-lasting design from Intel, isn't it?

also, my best guess is it'd actually be called the X190 Chipset, but we don't really know yet so w/e.

 

And I thought LGA 775 was the one that lasted longer...
