I want to know when we'll be able to house rule feats and powers. Until then, I will have a difficult time switching to the online builder. Too much fixing to do afterwards. I already have to go at it with a pen on a few people's sheet's for the secondary damage rolls that don't add miscellaneous bonuses. I like making the occasional custom item too, but I've stopped doing that due to CB difficulties.

Perhaps this is why the books were held back? To give the DDI time to be 'fixed' so that when new stuff wasi ndeed ready to be put in, instead of lying to the public for months about it, they just moved the books themselves back so that they can tackle it head on.

Yes, but that was the 4th Tuesday of the current month; later it was moved to the first Tuesday of the next month and now it's even later.

It's still smart for them to do periodic updates rather than a steady stream of small changes, at least for most non-critical bugs. It also makes sense to "batch" rules changes so that they update the way a set of related feats, features and powers interact all at once, e.g. if they updated the language on Regeneration they would want to touch all the relevant references at once.
Anyway, I never had the impression that there was a single "whole point" to the change. The online CB gives them a lot of flexibility, and publication scheduling is just one part of it.
I will dig around and poke some people, but my gut feeling is that the December update is the last that we will see to the Monster Builder.

While you're poking let Wizards know that my inclination to buy into their digital offerings is not greatly enhanced by their tendency to drop support for them with very little warning.
