Thanks Pari4u for this link (http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/resources/manuals/bulletins/2011/ob353.asp)
It was informative and it's good to know about their procedures, eventhough it did not say anything about those who have applied in May 2011 who have not received ANY replies from CIC yet...

1. You can sponsor them, and your spouse is the co-signer.
2. You have to meet the LICO + 30% for 3 years to be eligible.
3. The Parents sponsorship will re-open in January 2015 and again probably have only 5K spaces.
