Its funny that your friend is fanning the rumour mill, because two weeks ago the CFSCE Cmdt and RSM refused to say anything about the issue, only that DSigs would be providing an update "soon" as he was aware of the lack of information. They even went so far as to say they have an idea what is going on, but wouldn't fan the rumour flames with info that's not directly released from higher.
The reason we're in this gongshow is because everyone has a "friend" who "knows whats up" or was "passed this from his CoC". None of it is true, and probably none of it is from the actual people who are working on the file.
Misinformation is worse than no information.
