Recently Francisco Santos has announced that he has a counterexample to the Hirsch conjecture. The last I heard it was circulating among several people and there would be a public version of it available soon. I am curious how close it is to release. Also has there been any progress in the attempt to find the vertices of the counterexample. The last I heard to find the vertices a series of steps had to be done and each step increased the complexity of the problem by a geometric factor making it difficult to complete the computation.

$\begingroup$ Santos has a comment on Gil's blog saying that May 24 was an approximate deadline for release. looks like it's overdue $\endgroup$– Suresh VenkatCommented May 29, 2010 at 9:02
