When is the 'amnesty' when DU'ers can change their Usernames?

My name was a swipe at 'My Pet Goat' and the Orange One.

As soon as I can, I would like to have the name 'speakeasy'.

When is this happening, does anyone know?

Has there been an announcement?

It should be starting this weekend. There will be an announcement either Saturday or Sunday.
