Do only bloggers and the press get notified in advance of the release
date of Unicode 9.0?

They are getting it from the same place all of the members and anybody else
could have been seeing it, the draft 9.0.0 landing page we've had up for months
as part of the beta review:

http://www.unicode.org/versions/Unicode9.0.0/

That used to just say, June 2016, but then we got more explicit when June got
closer, and we could plan to an exact date.

The page was also easily accessible until a couple of days ago, when we took down the link to the old 9.0.0 beta review page in preparation for the actual release.

Oh, and for several days now, we've been tweeting that the release is imminent.

In fact... wait a few hours, and it will be here... ;-)
