The proposed Standard is currently delayed until a 15-day response
period for a "late correspondent" (not his fault) expires, after
which if the correspondent has filed an objection to the official
X3J11 response to his comments there will be a 20-day X3 ballot.
If no objection is files, no additional ballot will be necessary.
After final X3 approval, the proposed Standard will be sent to
ANSI for ratification.  We should know more sometime in June.
