You know the details were released today.

You can apply EE as long as you are qualified as one of the three economic class (fsw, ftw, or cec).
 
it seems they are not willing to remove those CEC ineligible NOCs in express entry as well. Very Sad
 

Getting Ready to Launch Express Entry
In-demand immigrants' applications will be processed in six months or less

December 1, 2014 — Ottawa — Canada's Citizenship and Immigration Minister Chris Alexander today confirmed it's one month and counting until Express Entry launches a new phase of active immigration recruitment to meet economic and labour market needs. Potential candidates can create their profile on January 1st, 2015, with the first Invitations to Apply issued within weeks.

Express Entry will help select skilled immigrants based on their skills and experience. Those with valid job offers or provincial/territorial nominations will be picked first. Details published today in the Canada Gazette explain how candidates will be ranked and selected, based on these factors that research shows are linked to success in the Canadian economy. Research shows these criteria will help ensure newcomers participate more fully in the Canada's economy and integrate more quickly into Canadian society.

Minister Alexander also highlighted that additional information was published on the CIC website to help potential immigrants and employers understand the new system, and to promote Canada as a destination of choice based on a strong economy, low taxes and job opportunities.

Express Entry will result in faster processing and will allow the Government of Canada to be more flexible and respond better to Canada's changing labour market needs.
Quick facts

Express Entry will manage applications for three federal economic immigration programs: the Federal Skilled Worker Program, Federal Skilled Trades Program and the Canadian Experience Class.
Provinces and Territories will be able to use the Express Entry system to select a portion of candidates for their Provincial Nominee Programs.
Express Entry will launch at 12 noon EST January 1st, 2015. The first draw for an invitation to apply is scheduled for the last week of January.
Once candidates have been selected from the pool they will need to complete the immigration process, which includes health and security checks. Applications will be processed in six months or less.
Canada is one of the most multicultural countries in the world, with clean and friendly cities, world-class universities, and business and job opportunities. Choose Canada.

Quote

“With the launch of Express Entry in January, our Government will build on our strong and proven record of helping immigrants succeed, and helping Canada's economy thrive. Starting January 1st, we will be able to select the top economic immigrants who will contribute to our economy, labour market and communities.”

I didn't see any restrictions either according to the Gazette which is an official law :) So I think we are good to go ahead and apply on Jan 1st. But are we going to be selected at all- that's another question...
 
So people with LMIA issued for skilled position will get an automatic invitation to apply for PR...but what about students who are on PGWP? Do we have to get LMIA too?? :o

i think since only portion of PNP will be proceessed under EE i think only those ppl will have to follow this guidelines and for those with PNP nomination who processed outside of EE will probably remain same it is right now..that is my best reading through all this.

I don't know. It's very confusing...But to claim 600 points for job offer, it has to be supported by LMIA..Then what is the point of studying here and getting PGWP..
