Well, it hasn't been a year since OTA-9 yet. IIRC it happened in the end 
of January (still it's been quite a long time).

Konrad Zapałowicz (kzapalowicz), the assigned dev said he wanted to have 
the pairing issues solved before diving in the other issues. There seems 
to be a fix in place that will land in OTA-12, at least for the pairing 
issues (which in my case actually has a workaround).

That being said, this is a **very** important functionality for me and I 
miss it every day.

Since it was a regression I was pretty sure it could be solved easily, 
but it seems I was wrong and the extent of the problem is much larger 
than I had anticipated. The fact that these bluetooth in-car systems are 
likely not readily available to the devs is probably the main cause for 
the delays.
