The intended rotation cycle is still 1-1-1 for NA-EU-AP regions, but 
it's all dependent on finding suitable and available venues and 
willing hosts and sponsors. Changing the text of the document would
imply a change in "policy" or "normal state of things" which there
hasn't been.

 A quick check of the "Upcoming IETF Meetings" calendar
 (http://www.ietf.org/meeting/upcoming.html) shows that the next meeting
 in Asia is scheduled for November 2015, while the last was November
 2011.  How does a 4 year gap map to "approximately once a year"?
