What this can also mean is that Blizzard are covering their butts in that if they don’t say / commit to any dates or say they are actively working on the spec and instead just keep with a short and simple “aware of issues” then they are NOT obligated to actually fix the spec before release.
THAT’s the issue everyone is concerned with.
Blizz playing coyly can just deny that they ever planned to fix / change anything before release.
