The game's code went gold on the 10th and the testing of the release candidate was completed at that point. The demo was then compiled based on that gold-code and is what is being tested now; so far, there haven't been any bugs or other problems reported. We've come up with a few things for future patches (such as the change in how Fire and Flee affects exiting troops) but that's been it since the Last Version, the one that went gold.

The manual's final readthrough will be finished this afternoon and it will be submitted to Shrapnel later today (or possibly tomorrow morning because of the time difference between the US and Sweden), and the spells and item listings have been finished for awhile. There may be some pre-print formatting left to do on the files, but I'm not sure on that score.

With all that in place, I don't think there will be any delays unless they happen at the printer or there is something I don't know about. I'm not privy to any scheduling stuff, but there hasn't been any talk of delay anywhere my Editing Parrot beak has led me.

(Edited for grammar an' stuff)
