Just last week when I actually inquired with SI,
I was told that v9.1 is NOT shipping, but only
distributed to selected early adopter sites.
General release 2004: 2nd quarter (i.e. after SUGI)
We don't have to wait long.

I've never seen a list of release dates on the web site.
Those usually appear in conference presentations, if ever.
