You are correct that the official announcement regarding ODU came on 10/27 (and USM on 10/26). I have seen articles that reported that all necessary approvals for the ODU move were completed the night of 10/26, but the official announcement is a reasonable date to use.

I didn't lock it. But when it was locked it was to keep people out who were abusing it.

It's open for posts but please keep them factual (not speculative) and keep it limited to data, and not discussion.

Thanks.
