No reason, except past practice for the "next year's DebConf will take place in
X location, date TBD" announcement. I don't have strong feelings on the matter,
though it's not enough information for anyone to plan schedules around yet.

I don't see why it's too late to do that still. IIRC I did send my registration
announcement from February 3 to debian-news and it never made it through, but
I'm planning to send a registration reminder some time between now and the end
of the weekend. Feel free to advise me how to get that more successfully to
press channels than my attempt from Fbruary.
