As has been mentioned, we should be seeing some strong action based on the news strory of an announcement within a few days. Since we are not seeing this at this time I can only assume that the "final" deal is not totally cemented so there is nothing to leak yet except preparing everyone for a forthcoming announcement. Sort of like pounding the enemys' position with artillery and bombs before the actual assualt (had to get some Veteran's Day stuff in here somewhere). Thanks to all Vets for serving their countries.
