Hi Bing,
I'd expect an update with the next point release - probably this coming
weekend 10/11 February. Bullseye is the former stable release and is
released in synchrony with the current Debian 12 - but every *other* point
release. This means that it's released roughly every 4-5 months.
The release team are planning 11.9 for February and, probably, another
release just before it drops from Debian security support to Long Term
Support status on 1st July 2024.
As ever, Debian is ready when its ready - so dates can slip.
