Yes, yes it is. AMS had lost one of their sysadmins -- they have hired a replacement, and are still planning on doing STARTTLS and DANE. The new person started recently and it takes some time to get up to speed / figure out where the skeletons are buried. Their "current estimate is that we will be able to address it directly following London, rather than before." I'm sure we are all somewhat frustrated at the delays (it *should* be a simple change), but I can understand them not wanting to make changes before the meeting / before the new person is fully up to speed. I'll push them after the meeting ends...
