Do we have any updates on this, I know it's a sensitive topic and that I'll get a ton of "You are starting rumors again" but wanted to ask nonetheless. I am not claiming the move will happen and I claim no insider knowledge on the topic - I am merely asking if some of you on this board have heard anything new if compared to all the rumors we had last year. Also, yes I am aware this was discussed here @DESQx6A (last year) and here @GSgfe7p (two years ago).... Again, asking for any updates...

Careful readers will have spotted the precursors already. Look for more formal news in the next month or two.
I don't understand why they didn't do it sooner. Texas is a super oil & gas friendly jurisdiction.
