Stay aware about the publication into the PMI website. When you see it then you will see a link that will direct you to the draft. In past versions people that was PMI members were the only people that can participate.

Curios to see the changes with respect to the 6th ed. It will be - in competition with the 3rd and 4th editions - the shortest time between editions since the journey beginning.

It is a full rewrite of the guide and the size has been reduced to ~200 pages. As such, I'd suggest it represents one of the biggest changes since the 2nd edition and addresses at least two of the concerns people had raised about it being too big and (perceived as) too prescriptive.

Kiron,
The sixth Edition was released in September 2017, and PMP certification exam format was revised on 26 March 2018, and implemented as of 01 July 2020. In 2020 the 7th edition comes out. Based purely on dates, one could argue that the 7th edition is also released in 2020 in order to really align with the PMP exam.

The difference is that the last exam revision included changes from the Sixth Edition whereas the current one is being done independent of the PMBOK Seventh Edition launch. My suspicion is that over the course of 2021 & 2022 once the PMBOK Guide has been published, new exam items might be written referencing it.
