VFXWorld and AWN.com, Animation World Magazine reported on this first I believe.

believe what you want, they all use the same wording and came out on the same day - what do you want to bet it was a press release?

no actually, they don't. AWN takes a press release and actually follows up on the new within it. They make phone calls, get quotes, verify information before posting any news item. Sarah Baisley is the editor there and is scrupulously anal about things like that. Ask her at sarah@awn.com. She never posts canned press releases.
