I would prefer the company keep quiet like this until it has material results to announce. It would be a distraction and dissipation of energies for them to keep the stockholders appraised of every little step they perform on a daily basis. They have better things to do than hold our hands.
And nowhere in Verity's post did I see that these activities were complete, merely pending. I wouldn't expect to hear from the company until they were.
Weren't we all complaining about Dean pre-announcing things that, while perfectly reasonable sounding, never came to pass? Why would anyone expect/want the new team to do the same?
