The construction of the L12 extension has officially begun : four more km between Porte de la Chapelle and Mairie d'Aubervilier.
Phase 1 should be completed in 2012.

That's true.
Several new stations have been built that way.
Due at an assault of a conductor at Rueil-Malmaison, the traffic on the RER A is shut down.
Result the whole Parisian transportation network is disrupted.
And even worse due to a technical problem (suspicious smoke), traffic is stopped on the line 14.
So in the busiest section of Paris (Gare de Lyon - Chatelet) only 2 lines out 4 run. The overcrowded metro line 1 and RER D.
Are they used only on the line 2 ?
I wish they had started their service on the line 6 instead. Both lines are very similar... and I use the latter much more.
