Your quote doesn't inspire a lot of confidence. I sure hope it's just a way of trying to coerce an update soon, and not based on privileged knowledge. I know that, here in the Museum, the authors have mentioned a lot of 'fixes' made, since the last update. It seems like Tim, Parisse, and others, closely watch over this forum, always at the ready to help where they can, and capture bug issues, when reported here.

Based on that, I have to think there probably will be future releases, and each will, probably, represent a very conscientious effort by the team, otherwise, why bother?

As a side question, what would an ideal trigger be to send out official updates? Once a year? Every time something as minor as a spelling/grammar change occurs?

As a product targeted for education, consistency of performance must be quite important, so that differing outcomes, (from updates), don't add further confusion within a classroom setting. Keep in mind that the update process itself, always seems to require special steps, due to the range of hardware, knowledge, skills, and abilities of hp prime users. Hewlett Packard recently made operational changes in it's overall business model, and how could working through that help move the update process forward?
