Encyclical delayed-- a lot

Just a couple of days ago I pointed out that the Ignatius Press site listed Caritatis Veritate, the 3rd encyclical of Pope Benedict XVI, as "available September 2008." But September was ending, and the long-awaited encyclical still wasn't available.
Things have changed. The Ignatius site now lists publication for April 2009.
[Hat tip to the American Papist, who spotted the same change of dates in the advance billing on Amazon.com.]
If it was close enough to list a publication date, what caused such a long delay? There's a story here...
