It was PickledOnion (Paul) who made the claim about announcements coming in February. He was promoted to a management position (he refers to himself as their "GM" in this thread: http://forum.slicehost.com/comments.php?DiscussionID=4348...) and appears to be the, or one of the key decision makers at Slicehost now. In that thread, he says that he accepts responsibility for Slicehost languishing during the course of the last year.
