No, but to be fair there have been plenty of stories, hints, etc from people who are in the "know" that have eluded to things happening at various times during this timeline. I mean dmoney just put out a message that" I expect it to be done by christmas" just a few days ago. As you say this was always the timelien, so why is this even news. It makes it seem like it could have been done sooner which creates narratives.
It doesn't matter to me. I'm just waiting. I'm not mad that he has or hasn't committed, just commenting that some messages have confusing to those that want things to happen.
