sure. It was a JP interview http://blog.livedoor.jp/umadori0726/.../54645648.html and here's the translation https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comme...shida_summary/

and here's the specific part about BLU

The schedule for BLU's level cap increase: The next timing will probably be the patch AFTER 5.0 (implying 5.05 or 5.1). It might be difficult to expect the level cap to reach level 80 during 5.0.
so the next cap for 5.0 is 60. Anything after that is wishful thinking
