Here's the definitive answer from John Barnes that he asked me to post:
"John is planning to write Programming in Ada 2012 but he has not yet
finalized the contract with the publishers; he would not expect it to be
published before early 2014."
He also said that he's planning to finish the Rationale for Ada 2012 before
starting on a revision of the book. So it looks like quite a wait for the
book.
