Because it's the 25th anniversary of the passage of the JFK Records Collection Act of 1992.
Oh but wait, I forgot to read the rest of the sentence in the JFK Records Act.
Personally, I have given up on the hunt for the smoking gun, but I also am very much looking forward to this release.
Here's a breakdown of those 3,571 documents by agency - FBI and CIA documents make up the bulk of them, but there's a fair number of IRS records too.
Another issue is, in the event of the release of these records, dissemination of them.
I am determined to get these records online even if they only come out in the Archives in paper form.
I plan to put up a page on the MFF site that will allow interested researchers to participate in identifying those high-value records.
