Since it's the same dev team as last year, I've got to imagine some take a little vacation time while others work on patches, then just push on through.

With a dev cycle of one year, there's no time to rest. I'm betting the 'brainstorming' is just a continuation of improvements from 09 > 10 > 11. They'll basically work on getting in what they couldn't before the madden 10 deadline.

My guess would be year round. The Madden titles are just new releases of the same game. I'm sure their constantly adding to their internal wishlist for the game and ranking the items on priority and doing there best to get the best combination of changes in for the next release. There were probably several things they were trying to get in for Madden 10 that didn't make the deadline that would now just roll over into the Madden 11 release.

I'd think they've already started on Madden 11.
