Debian has entered "Transition freeze".

Transition freeze ... means no new library transitions or package transitions that involve a large number of packages.
Full freeze: Feb 5 2017.

As always, Debian 9 "Stretch" will be released "when it's ready".

    Might be. They also aimed to release a good 1.5 years ago ("This distribution should be ready about the time Debian Jessie is
    ready"), see https://devuan.org/os/debian-fork/ [devuan.org]
