Timeline for upcoming Favours / Renown reworks?

Is there a timeline for the next batches of Connections to be turned Favours / Renown? I'm currently grinding Connected: Revolutionaries all the way up to 100 to gain entrance to a certain Cave, and I'll be somewhat annoyed if the cost drops to 7 Favours before I get there...
The financiers would also appreciate fewer... *vigorous* surprises at their meetings, as well.

I'm curious - which method are you currently using for Revolutionaries? (Also, do you have a Salon? Because if so I'm thinking "A public lecture" in the Forgotten Quarter (requires SOTC) might be a slower grind but would be more beneficial than going purely for Revolutionaries connection.)
Don't have a salon (I'm a pretty new arrival to the PoSI content) so I've been using the "Bomb a meeting" option under "Bring Revolution" in the Flit. +100CP of Connected with a Casing requirement around 13-14 IIRC. Probably not the most efficient in terms of CP-per-action, but I've been really busy lately and the 5-action "Well-Planned Villainy" means a morning's actions take 8 mouse clicks.
Yeah, fastest is conflict cards with complete and utter pro-revolution bias and "A public lecture". On the other hand, none of those options are extremely beneficial, while bombing a meeting has an actual payout of 16 echoes. To be fair, The collateral society boost can be traded in for 25 echoes per 10 levels past 50 on the tomb colonists conflict card, which isn't bad, and if any bohemian conflict card gets released first that'd probably pay out well too.

I will accept all social actions that do not consume free evenings- and i will provide patronage to anyone who requests it, though it will be split between all requesters.
On psudeo-hiatus. Will be inactive and active and fluctuate without warning.

Successfully bombing a meeting will probably take you about ~20 actions on average, for 100 cp revolutionaties and 16 echoes of stuff. And some menaces.
Lectures will give you 100 cp revo (and some menaces, and society+bohemians) in 7 actions, and the saved 13 actions will eventually be worth almost 20 echoes or more.

I was doing the same thing, but I found that it is a lot faster doing the Intrigues of the Box to grind Candles to get 400 Echos.
I am curious who is next on the conversion list, though.
