With inclusion of what Sutts said, I think you might be missing something here. The plan is to released the SDK once it is ready for use . But even if it gets released, it fixes just one part of the problem. As I understand , CloD is coded to have an open module and a fully closed official module. So that modders do their stuff and create their game, while the official development goes on just like with IL2. And that means a very wide timespan with at least few addons made in a "Forgotten Battles" manner.

So for people doing vanilla only such as me, the game won`t get fixed even if SDK is released. So the developper must work on the game in order to keep the official version of CloD running and expanding anyway. That is ofcourse not without numerous fixes the community might bring into the official version as it was in the past ( numerous examples of it ; the track recording memory issue for example - hotfixed by 3rd party, acknowledged and released in official 1C patch).
