I mailed them this morning. Here is the (quite fast) reply: Hi Brian,
it was a little bit more difficult searching some details for articles. So I'm sorry to tell you we need a little bit more time because we want to have a really good almanac :-)) Thats why we have to remit the publishing day til middle/end of August.
Thanks a lot for your patience!
Regards from BarbaraSo August it is now....

Good news #1: It arrived in the post this morning! Yippee!
Good news #2: There are 11 tiles on the card!
Bad news #1: Only 5 of them are for Carcassonne (the other 6 are for a new game called Stone Age)
Bad news #2: All five are Shrines…
Bad news #3: They are identical to the 5 shrine tiles released in Count, King and Consorts…
Bad news #4—Good news #3 (depending on how you look at it): They all come with a pentagon marking, meaning they do, strictly speaking, count as a new expansion.
Conclusion: Meh.

Ouch... are the rules for the shrines the same as GK&K? And no wonder they were delaying the expansion. They should have just printed some of the custom tiles from this site :p

Yep, the rules are identical apart from minor differences—a comma here and there, words previously written as two words (genau so) written as one (genauso), and vice-versa. The biggest difference it that the last sentence (about being able to place the follower on the farm, road or city instead of the shrine) has be moved to the end of the placement rules, rather than after the 'challenge' rules.
I think what we got caught out by was the mention of other completely new tiles. They are indeed there—they just aren't for Carcassonne.

I agree about your "caught out" statement. They never said those new tiles were for Carcassonne. We only assumed that they were and we were wrong. Nevertheless, I still can't wait to get my copies since I haven't bought GK&K yet. I guess I don't need to buy GK&K anymore since I'll be getting the new tiles from Spielbox AND RGG's next expansion. Edit: Actually, some of the Stone Age players knew the contents of the tiles as early as June: See this post on BGG.

Frankly, it's a shame that the Shrine tiles weren't released as a freely available mini-expansion like the Count was. Would have made a lot more sense. On a related dumb note, the shops in town recently restocked their supplies of the Count—which, given the availability of the 6th expansion, seems pretty pointless.

Just added an option for the this expansion in the member profiles. You'll have to click on Forum Profile Information to edit the preference.
