My head is spinning. I am certain I heard about this weeks ago. I don't think it was through a backchannel or a rumor mill—I thought I had read something official about it. In fact, I've spoken to people several times about it, most recently yesterday. And when they expressed surprise, I went looking for the official announcement, and I couldn't find one.

Is it possible that RStudio Inc. made a soft announcement that they later pulled for re-tooling? Or perhaps my memory is faulty and I did just hear about it through a back channel. Obviously this is something that takes time to plan and execute so it has been in the works for awhile.

The legal change happened last year but it had been kept under wraps until today. Employees did know in advance, so it could have leaked.
