So how long does everyone think 1.19 will take to get out the door?

So how long does everyone think 1.19 will take to get out the door?
I think we'll see it either early September or late September.
We will see 1.19 when 1.19 is added to a patch
August 19th
NEVER
Hopefully in a month or two.
My realistic expectations based on what I understand and observe from the development team lands it in the late September, early October range.
I hope it's not any later than August to early September. :/
I'm ready for 1.20 to see the light of day for that sweet, sweet job system.
.......................................
Until we know the full scope of items 1.19 will be covering I'm not sure we can speculate on how much work will need to be done on it. I'm assuming early september at best.
September at the earliest.
They've already mentioned there will be a 1.18a, which will be coming in August. They aren't going to release an "a" patch and the next big one in the same month.
Looks like most of you dont read at all.
There was a letter where SE mentioned all the Stuff, which will be in 1.18, 1.19 and 1.20 !
( Producers Letter X )
Along with that SE has beeing said, those are the Plans for the Summer. Summer ends for Japanese people by END of September ( There was a very long Thread about it ). So how you guys expect 1.19 for end of September? When you guys think 1.20 will be added, when it also meant to come by end of September? ( Pushing back can always happns, but that wasnt announced ).
And also.. SE also said, while working on 1.18, that they are allready working on 1.19 and 1.20. And they gave out little Infos about it, while they gave out Patchnotes of 1.18.
So assuming 1.19 will come by end of September, with no room for the 1.20 release till end of September, doesnt make much sense.
My guess:
Mid of August - End of August
Their update schedule, before the earthquake, was one major patch a month followed by a lettered patch throughout that month. If they go back to that schedule after 1.18—I predict it will be out by the end of August.
They never said that 1.20 would be out by the end of Summer. 1.20 also has content not listed in the "Summer 2011" list of developed items.
If 1.19 is out by the end of September, they're on schedule.
As far as I know one of the letters said that the new job system would come/start with 1.20. And everything in that letter was at least planned to be added before the end of summer.

The Battle System section was getting a bit large, so I made a separate category for enemy and field changes. This time around, the list contains additions planned for up until summer 2011. You see what I did there with the bold font for emphasis? But anywho, without further ado, feast your eyes on the list in its entirety! (Remember, these are our plans until summer 2011!)
Yeah, thanks~ Just found it myself. ;)
Early to mid-September. August will see 1.18a, b, and possibly c before they can even think about releasing 1.19
The list of current tasks didn't contain the release of Job system- only the development. Yoshida later clarified that job system implementation comes after 1.20.
I would like to believe late august, but maybe that is just wishful thinking on my part :D. If not then, probably mid to late september.
I'd say.. mmh... September 22.
I reckon Jobs will be December-ish.
I also think that Jobs will be the first task for the Public Test Server.
I Hope they have been sitting on a bunch of content(Ishgard) for post-1.20.
Kinda pulling all that outta my ass but i feel its an educate guess.
Thats swanky and all but I'm still assuming other things will be added or pulled back to different patches as things demand. So until I see a more recent list of the changes in the next patch I'm still going to assume there will be a hard time saying "When" the patch comes out.
In the letter X it's not mentioned "village contents", like yoshi said to be in 1.20 in a recent interview, so we could assume that 1.20 will be after end of summer.. october/november maybe.
My guess would be late August +/- a week or 2 for normal development deviations.
I would like it to be August but I think it will most likely be September :P
My guess will be Sept 8th for 1.19, and probably see patch 1.18a on Aug 4th, next week. 1.18a sounds like work that didn't quite make it on time for 1.18 so its probably mostly finished and needs to be debugged. Back on 1.19 it all depends on how much work has already been done on chocobos and airships. It's not like they are starting with no assets, but how much work that is completed only they know.
