Someone suggested that when 3rd party publishers receive the 4.0 rules to review in order to begin working of projects, they might not be allowed to say that they have them. I can certainly understand how some people would want to 'bug' 3rd party publishers with constant questions about the rules that they aren't getting answered directly from WotC.
That said, is there any chance that Paizo will be able to say when they've been given the ruleset to review?

Until we see the rules and the associated NDA type paperwork that comes with them... we can't say. We can certainly say when we HAVEN'T seen the rules. So I guess if you see us stop posting whiny and cranky posts about how we haven't yet seen the rules, you can maybe either assume that we HAVE the rules, or that we've just grown too tired to cry about it. :)

In the thread about the truth about the spell plague, sorta, they link to a Blog of Chris Perkins in which he states the FR novelists are 'on deck' to get a copy of the rules.
I don't know what that means, but I guess it could be soon. For further clarification, it sounds like you're working approximately 8 months out? So, if you got a copy of the rules in December and they were ULTRA easy to use, you could conceivably convert to 4th edition for Pathfinder 3? But because you expect it to take time to read and understand the rules, the real deadline is somewhere in the first couple weeks of November, and even that is pushing it?
Paul Kemp mentioned on his blog that he saw a rough draft of the Forgotten Realms Campaign Guide (very rough draft, pre Ed Greenwood actually getting involved). So I'm not sure that they are getting them on board with the rules or the setting.
