One thing I noticed this year is that it seems that Paizo is holding off on their announcements. In previous years, I remember Paizo releasing details about their future products (I believe) in Oct, Feb, and June for May-Aug, Sept-Dec, and Jan-April, respectively. As far as I understand it, it was for Diamond Distribution to get it into the book trade. I might be way off base, but this is my recollection.
Feb is more than a month behind us and we barely have few to no details on books coming out past GenCon. In most cases we don't even have names. I'm wondering is this because of the dissolvement of Borders and much of the Book Trade food chain? If so ... when are we going to find out info on the end of the year? Some of us want to get excited about Campaign Settings and Player's Guides with releases scheduled for later this year (that we don't know about yet).

Diamond has moved away from the three-times-per-year cycle that drove that process, and we haven't quite worked out what's best for us. We've been experimenting with monthly announcements—in fact, I just posted September's announcements today!
Really!?! *Flies away in search, calling* Thanks Vic!
