To explain a bit more how this all works:
Right now we are testing three things on SiSi: We are testing the new tooltips, we are testing the A/B-testing framework, and we are making sure the old tooltips haven't regressed given the above development/changes. For this testing the users on SiSi were split 50/50 into the new tooltips and the old tooltips.
On TQ we will deploy this in at least three phases: First phase will be a "dark" deployment in which everyone but selected CCP devs will have the old tooltips. Second phase will be the experiment where a certain ratio of new players will get the new tooltips. Third phase will be a general rollout to all players (based on positive results from the experiment). It's during the third phase we will do the normal round of devblogs, etc. Erlendur S.

Guessing this might roll out to everyone in the next 1-2 months, but not going to make any promises. Erlendur S. Thorsteinsson | Development Director | EVE Online // CCP Games | @erlendur |

This version sounds like an excuse to force unwilling players to beta test for you. I wonder if this is necessary because of how sisilauncher.exe was killed in order to add the launcher.exe in spite of universal negative feedback about ever part of the process.
edit: ah, I get it... it's to reduce the amount of feedback on a feature, so you can blame us for not giving you feedback when said feature is awful.
