N. Korea funds impasse resolved

"We support the release of all the funds. It is now a matter of technical implementation," spokesman Sean McCormack told reporters, adding that the actual return of the money would be up to China and North Korea.

Um, hasn't it always been a matter of 'technical implementation'?

The article from the AP (linked to above) deserves reading, if only for its highly elliptical manner of describing what is supposedly going on. Looks to me like State is still trying to make this a fait accompli, let us see what Treasury has up their sleeve.
