The judge is only deciding what the claims mean for now. that is the date we are waiting for. The judge won't throw the case out now, since infringement won't be taken up by the judge until

1)after the claims are interpreted

2) discovery on infringement is taken (depositions, documents etc)

3) someone moves for summary judgement asking the judge to decide the case

Even if that happens, if there are disputed facts about what someone does, the judge won't decide and will let a jury decide. However, once the claims are interpreted (1 above) it is easier for people to assess the strength of each sides case since there is usually less dispute about what an accused infringer does, than about what the claims mean.
