By summer 2010, they will have connecting walkways between T1 (AF, AZ) and T2 (DL), as well as between T3 (DL) and T4 (DL, NW, OK, KL), similar to the one currently between T3 and T2. The goal is to have easy access to all DL and DL codeshare flights (since CDG and AMS are now exclusively being operated by AF and KL respectively) under one roof, so to speak.
Rebuild is supposed to be done by mid-2012.
That would be one heck of a walk from T1 to T4. One thing that is huge about the Shuttle Bus is that if you are traveling coach, with no status, and no CLEAR membership, security at T4 (at certain times) is DREADFUL. going through T2/T3 and using the bus may prove to be much more helpful.
