Microsoft Ignite starts tomorrow and there are a few hints that Places will be discussed.
They created an indoor map for the event:

Mentions of "convergence and digital worlds": https://ignite.microsoft.com/en-US/sessions/8f87629c-dd0b-421d-8db8-2a9d0bb06ffb?source=sessions
I may just be speculating out of my butt. They don't mention Places at all anywhere, so either it's going to be one of the things they announce right off the bat, or it'll be straight up MIA. I think if there's a time for more information to come out, though, it'll be this.

Seems MIA, and the announcement link has been scrubbed, frustratingly. "Microsoft Places will be available in 2023." That's an unequivocal statement, so crickets at Ignite is not helping the ol' blood pressure.
