Is there any update on the Availability of Event Horizon Telescope Images? There has been no news on the obvious public channels from the EHT project since last (Northern) summer. Does anyone have more information on when any results from the April 2017 run might be released? 

A secondary question is has the data from the April 2018 run been successfully gathered? I know they have to wait for Antarctic spring to ship the hard drives from the South pole, but that should have arrived a couple of months ago.
Today, April 10th 2019, there was a press conference where finally an image of M87 was released:


Scientists have obtained the first image of a black hole, using Event Horizon Telescope observations of the center of the galaxy M87. The image shows a bright ring formed as light bends in the intense gravity around a black hole that is 6.5 billion times more massive than the Sun. This long-sought image provides the strongest evidence to date for the existence of supermassive black holes and opens a new window onto the study of black holes, their event horizons, and gravity.
