Honestly reading it, the mention of seasonal talk seems more to create a time-line for the players rather then the content included. If this read "Patch 1.17 Outline" then I'd be more worried. Saying:
"Even so, this still won’t make up for all of the time lost from our original schedule." Further creates the image that he wants to get the point across that in-light of everything that has happened in japan they're still trying to get back on track. Using Easter(DATE not event) as one of there stepping stones in order to do that.

Anyways that is what I got out of the "Main Topic" from what all he said. Not that this will have Easter stuff.
