Ruth,
No schedule.
We are working on it, sort of.
I have only seen one feature mentioned from 4.3.0 that will be of much
use to Cygwin/XFree86 users.
You have to remember, the bulk of updates in XFree86 4.3.0 apply to the
XFree86 X Server, which Cygwin/XFree86 doesn't use. There have been
updates to the various libraries and a few clients, but there aren't
many must-have fixes in 4.3.0, that I know of at least.
The X Server that Cygwin/XFree86 uses is released separately from
XFree86, so we continue to evolve Windows-specific features even while
we leave the underlying code base at an older version.
