i'm not admin. I don't know what he knows.
but I can only assume he will say something like this:
"all in due time
"
as I said before.
judging from past experience, patches are only announced a week or two before their release. but If this service pack is so massive - it can also be delayed by bugs (and i'm sure there are a lot of them if this upgrade is so fundamental as they claim).
I can only suggest to be patient
give them the time to do their magic - they are good at it
