I base this on the fact that the man writes fast, and this time (unlike with the previous WoT books) he is not writing anything until A Memory of Light is done. That, coupled with the fact that I suspect most of the already-written material left over from Jordan himself is in this last book, leads me to believe that he could be done with a first draft by April-May, which puts him on schedule for an October/November 2011 release date.
Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

Hard to say because RJ apparently had already written the entire Last Battle

I would say we're looking at a very similar time frame, maybe really early spring 2012. *NM*

Except that early spring is a bad time to release a book. I'm thinking summer 2012 like deadsy says *NM*
