I'm hoping they announce it today :) It's badly needed. On the other hand I can also understand not wanting to release before all bug testing and fixing has been thoroughly done. Releasing features that aren't 100% ready yet is a recipe for disaster.
And a floodstorm of complaints from unexpected behaviour or the code is not something I'd recommend having on this platform. Already it seems that communication from the platform's management could use some improvement from time to time.
So I think patience is needed.
