MMT will decide that and they are still meeting. That would have been prior to the new ECO issue, also.
"Anonymous sources" will be engineers etc..the same sort of thing we work off. You can't go naming sources.

So where are we? Are the teams currently performing the 24 hour scrub-turnaround procedures while waiting for the MMT to conclude?

Even when she's grounded, Atlantis is a beautiful bird... (taken about an hour ago during an unexpected photo opp organized by KSC PAO).

That was the last report. The launch team is preserving the option of tanking tomorrow, but I think some people are inferring (incorrectly) that means they will tank tomorrow. Haven't seen a report of any decisions out of the MMT yet.
