From their recent Q&A and the number of responses that mentioned that they're looking into that for "after release" tells me that it's being released soon -- like the mid-November dates people have been talking about might be right.
I understand that Hero classes are concidered an "after release" thing. And, maybe because I'm only periferally into PvP, as far as I'm concerned the big PvP stuff can wait. But the talents, high level spells, and just polish on classes needs to happen before release. There's nothing that upsets people more than spending a long time building up a character and getting attached to it and then suddenly getting hit by a nerf stick afterwards.
One Blizzard employee poster mentioned something about keeping a test server up to test things like new instances, but I haven't heard any details about it. Hopefully, something like that will happen. *Crossed fingers*.
