Could start anytime as soon as end of the year to early spring.

ok, my glassball was verbose - +1 year (+/- one year)

PS: Don't ask for a fucking ETA - we all don't know nothing - but the cycle was somtehing like two years - more or less, nobody can answer.

The fine thing about is that we don't care - sid will never ever be released, so we don't care about the stable release cycle.

Who says that he (registered, 1 posting, not seen since) means sid and not siduction? Maybe it's just the usual question of a current image.

Then you might have discovered this post:
