In July it was announced for 2nd half of 2013:

We’ll begin regularly adding new skills and traits to the game for each profession to expand your characters and builds! You will be able to earn these new traits and skills by unlocking them. To go along with this, we’ll expand the content and options to earn skill points to help encourage players to experience different challenges and content throughout the world. These skills and traits will be designed to be balanced with the existing skills/traits we currently have in the game, and will simply compliment and expand the range of abilities and tactics available to each profession. Both WvW and PvE players can acquire skills and traits, and additional means of earning skill points will be addressed for both core content areas.

Does the December class balancing info mean that we are no longer going to see any new traits/utilities in 2nd half of 2013? Has it been put off? Was really looking forward to this announcement, guessing all this class balancing stuff wouldn’t be announced without telling us there will be some new traits/utilities that may offset problems.
