We know about those threads, I’ve been on them and I’m sure you have also.
What I’m trying to say here is that the actual recruiting and training of the personnel is the last step before the operations can go online.
And they’re not gonna hire a truckload of people to work in places like this if there are no “internees”, and there’s nothing to do.
I hope I’m wrong, but I see the actual hiring process as an indicator that somebody somewhere expects something big to happen fairly soon.
