Does anyone have news on the M4 redesign?

Back in 2009 the Army was considering 6 new fixes to the M4 including:

The overhaul proposals include:
• Adding a heavier barrel for better performance during higher rates of fire.
• Replacing the direct-impingement gas system with a piston gas system.
• Improving the trigger pull.
• Incorporating an improved rail system for increased strength.
• Adding ambidextrous controls.
• Adding a round counter to track the total number of bullets fired over the weapon’s lifetime.


Anyone have news or if the Army is doing anything to improve their M4s?
