  With yesterday's release to manufacturing of Windows Server 2012, and August 15th availability on TechNet and MSDN:

  http://www.winsupersite.com/article/paul-thurrotts-wininfo/microsoft-releases-windows-server-2012-manufacturing-143893

  and September 4th for General Availability. that leaves one question.

  Will Windows Server 2012 Essentials be released on that same schedule?

  
  

  
  No, Windows Server 2012 Essentials has not reached RTM status yet.

  No announcement yet. Anything else would be speculation
