Not to be rude but: who cares? Nobody sits around waiting for the release of a new version for production database systems, in the manner that we used to wait excitedly for new releases of Lotus 1-2-3. I talk to people daily who are using Oracle 8.0 and 7.x in production - analyzing the apps and porting to new versions can take years. If you need the features of a new version that badly, you are already talking to support and running a beta copy - the exact release date +/- one year is meaningless.
