Did Bond retire in SPECTRE?

...and if so, will the next movie reference this?

The ending of SPECTRE pretty much rounded up the whole Craig-era Bond. Bond was finished with the Secret Service.
It couldn't have been any more obvious, with him choosing Madeleine over M on the bridge, throwing his gun away, choosing not to kill Blofeld ("you always have a choice"), and Q saying "I thought you'd gone".
So I'm wondering if the new movie will reference this? Even if it's just M calling Bond, and going down the "Bond, we need you back" thing, (preferably after seeing some pre-credit dastardly deeds carried out by a grotesque villain).
