BCM to be published in soon?

Hi!

First of all I'd like to apologize if I posted my question into wrong forum.

I found a paper titled: "The BRICS Component Model: A Model-Based Development Paradigm For Complex Robotics Software Systems" from the list of accepted papers for SAC2013. I was wondering if this is an indication that the whole specification of BCM is going to be published soon? So far I've been able to find only papers that describe an overview of the component model.

Would someone here be able to shed light on this matter?

BR, Mathias

We have had big troubles getting previous attempts published! We have been
struggling with review comments like "this is too industrial" or "please
prove that your approach is better than others"...
On the other, technical, hand, we have also been struggling with a lack of
appropriate formal _constraint_ specification languages. For example, to put
constraints on what interconnections between components, ports and
connectors a specific component model allows. Or to describe various
computational models.
