What was once called the London Connections map, the "London's rail and

The last I heard from the utterly-reliable Govia Thameslink company it
was planned to extend Oyster/contactless cards to Luton Airport by
"autumn 2016". Indeed ticket barriers there and at Luton station had
"Oyster" pads fitted at least a year ago (originally with a sign saying
they were not yet working), but a wikipedia page says the timescale is
now "by 2018" which implies a considerable slip. Does anyone have any
more up-to-date information?
