Default East London Line replacement bus ELC to be withdrawn?

Just seen this mentioned on the DD forum - a poster there has noticed
that the unofficial (but rather well informed) "London Bus Routes"
website shows that the ELC rail replacement bus service - the route
that runs from New Cross Gate via New Cross and Rotherhithe stations
to Canada Water and v.v. - is supposedly being discontinued from 26
September, see:

Eh?! Some mistake, surely? The extended East London Line isn't going
to open until some time next year (the most optimistic estimates were
for December this year, but that now seems unlikely) - to withdraw the
ELC bus service now would be rather premature, to say the least.
