I hate such news on unconfirmed days of launch. I do not need such news when it does not bring exact/ scheduled launch day. Over expectation, and long waiting time might lead to stress, dissapointment, and panic actions, somehow. I think it is better without such news. News should be released only if it contains exact scheduled launch day of important upgrades for Ethereum network. Consequently, I only wait for official news from Ethereum team and / or Vitalik's tweets.
