Yes, you shouldn't get your hopes up. The announcement is for an operational milestone, as per the TH. If it included funding then the funding would be addressed in the TH.
This is likely less interesting that I thought. I suspect that the details of build schedules, delivery, etc, probably took a day longer than expected so it wasn't available for release by opening of the market today.
I'm pretty sure that when the funding halt comes (knock on wood) we won't need to be guessing if it's finally arrived. It will be pretty clear.
I'm not saying this is the funding announcement but it could be an announcement stating that production will begin. That would be an operational milestone as sated in TH.
But perhaps you're right and it is just the CDR complete. But why wouldn't they just wait until CDR was complete then trigger TH?
It's the voluntary suspension and GOMspace extraordinary meeting that got me thinking. Could be a coincidence.
