it actually states "unless otherwise indicated in a future Ministerial Instruction"

It means Express Entry program will supersede this existing instruction.

Agreed on that one, it clearly states that, but I thought that the EE basic info was already out by then, right?

If not, it sure does take precedence.

This is old news. Unfortunately, the cap will be reached way before April 30, 2015.

This info on the CEC class webpage is more recent - http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/cec/apply-who.asp

Note: As of May 1, 2014, there is an overall cap of 8,000 for new Canadian Experience Class applications. There are also sub-caps of 200 for each National Occupational Classification B applications. These are the last applications we will accept under the current system before Express Entry launches in January 2015.
