(The two spacewalkers mentioned are from the ISS crew and not from the shuttle crew)

By now, has NASA finalized the ET-138 - ET-122 swap decision between Endeavour and Atlantis?

STS-135 has a crew of four and they'll be tied up with transfers from the MPLM the whole time.

I remember that USOS eva's have some kind of issue with gas recharging being an issue, and the only way to recharge is shuttle, so that is why most EVA's occur during docked ops.
Earlier in one of Chris B's STS-135 articles, the mission duration was mentioned as 11+1+2 days. Has it now been changed to 12+0+2 days ?
if STS-134 launch is push back to April 1. will the STS-135 mission be push back also?
