OnePlus co-founder Carl Pei stated on Twitter early this morning that the company's One and only phone will be receiving its CyanogenMod 12S update (read: Lollipop) in "mid to late" March. Pei also implied that a similar timeline was in place for the company's in-house-ish Oxygen OS ROM.

Pei noted - in response to claims that current 12S nightlies seem stable - that "proprietary drivers, code, QA, [and] certifications" were responsible for the company missing its 90-day deadline to update the phone to Android 5.0.

@rajarshi_10 We released an L alpha a while ago, but a more stable build (OxygenOS & CM12S) will need to wait until March. Sorry for delay!

Given OnePlus' rather ugly falling out with Cyanogen Inc., the fact that an update is coming at all is good news. I don't know if I'd count on there being a CM13S for the One, though. But hey, maybe Oxygen OS will be the... breath of fresh air (sorry) the OPO needs to really catch on.
