Perhaps making such assumptions is the real problem here.

While I'm not aware of any official announcement (and does that really
warrant an announcement in any case? It's an open question) I had known
for a while now that a relocation was planned. IIRC, I saw that in the
latest annual report or something, and domas confirmed that when I asked.
