Kevin Shirley Working on Live Maiden Material ?
After letting his readers know that "January and February [will] see me back in London, working on revamping some Maiden catalog.", Kevin Shirley has now added a new entry into his diary which might lead us to think he's working on Live Maiden material:I'm back in my old studio control-room in London, getting to grips with some live music I'm preparing to mixdown for DVD and CD - and each live recording always comes with it's own set of problems. This one is a vocal microphone with more band than voice and it's pretty complicated to fix!
Since he doesn't directly mentions Maiden, this can only be taken as rumor for the moment.

Did Bruce loose his voice, or what might have happened?

I doubt that this is about Maiden.
Basically, it seems that the singer's microphone caught a lot of the band's sound, probably because the singer was holding it too distant from his mouth. That said, I very much doubt that it could happen to Maiden, since they have a very professional road crew.
Yeah, they dio. But Bruces voice can be very strained at some shows, I just hope that it is not Bruce.

Hi - holed up in my hotel in London - really sick! Man Down! Managed to get to the studio and get a mix done today, but feeling like death warmed-up! And that's all for now - cough, cough!
That's the last entry. Maiden related mix or not, impossible to say.
Cheers

Hi - still mixing away in Central London - DVD stereo audio is done, start 5.1 surround mixes next week!
Could it be a Maiden DVD ? Dod Tour ???
Cheers
Last day of the month, and I'm back in the studio mixing 5.1 surround sound, which I love doing, of a very heavy rock gig I recorded recently! Had dinner with photographer Ross Halfin last week and took in a Velvet Revolver gig at the Hammersmith Odeon - but have to admit to being slightly underwhelmed! Love STP and GnR but this wasn't either! * Just signing in to close out another January - the weather is very nice in London - managed to go biking this morning in a T-shirt which was much needed after a weekend of fun and games that saw precious little sleep experienced by yours truly! But hey, I was not as naughty as old Bill who was here and basically got hooked up in a very instinctual way, leaving no stone unturned! 
Enjoy your day,

Should be Maiden... So, it would mean he's working on live material from DOD !
Cheers
This seems to be confirmed. See the main news.
