Well, normally packagers get the new source code one week ahead of the
release (at least for KDE). So after KDE 4.3.4 was tagged in svn (which
hasn't yet happened) and which you could check here:
http://websvn.kde.org/tags/KDE/
So I normally start building packages then if I find enough time.
Building packages needs about a day, more problematic is that some
packages fail then and I might need to work on a patch then and rebuild
that program with the patch. This also makes clear why building the
packages might need a bit longer then.
So normally Windows packages can be ready up to 3-4 days before the
official release but if to much time is needed it can also be behind the
schedule.

Well, I hope I find enough time and not to much problems will occur then.
