BD Live to be delayed?

[diogen]

Alex Millians, reportedly a journalist, not a BD insider but quite often knowing more about the BD affairs
(and willing to spill the beans) than insiders, made this cryptic post a few hours ago:
Industry Insiders Master Q&A thread IV: ONLY Questions to Insiders - Page 7 - AVS Forum

Talk, when you get back from your vacation, can you* give a simple yes/no if the first SCG PG3 BD Live RRT planned for Q2 actually occurred?

Some interpreted this as a sign that BD Live might not be in as good a shape as BDA wants people to believe.

I saw that. Care to offer an interpretation of "SCG PG3 BD Live RRT planned for Q2 actually occurred" ?

Based on one of the posts (now removed), Round Robin Testing of BD Live video material (PG3) in System Compatibility Group planned for the second quarter.

Alex seems to imply that the planned testing did not take place.

The best Talk could do (not to violate the NDA):

...if the studios who have announced BD Live content were concerned about the status of RRT I doubt they'd publicly commit to a release date.
