This is actually a schedule when the development of TeX Live 2012 finishes. It is actually under development since the TL2011 as far as I understand it. > > People will end up installing TL 2012 (let's think of Septemeber > 2012), thinking that they have the latest and greatest version and > maybe even start asking question about TL 2012 on the TeX Live mailing > list, while they will in fact get some random snapshot of TL 2011. People who install TL2012 now will have a development snapshot of latest souces + latest CTAN packages. It is stable enough and its development cycle comes to the end at 2nd April.
