Facebook Redesign May Not Go Live to All Users for "A Month"

We are deprecating infinite session keys after the new profile launches to all users August 27, 2008.

However, it appears that this is likely not going to actually be the launch date. In a post last Thursday in the Facebook Developers Forum, the Facebook Platform Developer Operations & Support Team wrote,

We do not have a definite timeline set out for the permanent switch but it will most likely be past August 27th.
