At a *complete guess*, I'd imagine those people now using contactless as
part of the pilot won't have to stop using it before it launches for
real. As I said, a complete guess.

The only bit of the pilot that seems not ready for launch is issuing a
membership card, perhaps because revenue protection staff don't yet
have a new reader? Perhaps that will get resolved and then it will go
live? Has anyone had their Oyster card checked recently by a hand held
reader that is different to the traditional ones?
