Not just a rumor. All of the new CA's I've talked with lately have had at least a week off. One guy was telling me six weeks between sim and IOE, but I'm not sure if I understood that correctly.
This doesn't mean that this will for sure continue in the future (there are a number of factors) but there is at least a chance.
