Default Fall 2012 Syllabus and Updated Study Materials

Hey All,

Based on past sittings, about when should it be expected that the syllabus for the Fall sitting along with updates to the study manuals to reflect the changes be released? If it was still a month or more away, I was thinking it would make sense to work on an FSA module during that time but if it was sooner than that, I was probably going to focus on getting ready for the exam.

I did a quick search and didn't see anything on this topic so I think I'm relatively safe from asking anything redundant (feel free to link me to a previous post if I'm mistaken). Thanks in advance!

From an e-mail in February:

The syllabus for each of the fall exams will be published the first week of May, per our standard schedule.

From an e-mail last Friday:

We apologize for the delay, it is expected to be released within the next week or so.

So are the study notes not available anywhere? Am I correct in thinking that when something is listed in the Syllabus Resources like: ILA-D101-07: Product Development Trends, pp. 1-61, these are from the study notes and are unavailable to this point.
