The news late last week for Google's modular smartphone initiative was not good. After promising a real world test of Project Ara would take place in 2015, Google finally had to pull back and cancel those plans. A series of tweets today at least provides some clues as to what's next for Ara. There are three tweets which conveniently answer the questions—when, where, and why?

When? As in, when is the test going to happen now?

When? 2016. #yeswearelate #ProjectAra

Where? As in, where will the devices be tested if not Puerto Rico?

Where are we headed next? We are looking at a few locations in the U.S. #ProjectAra #newlocationcomingsoon — Project Ara (@ProjectAra) August 17, 2015

Why? As in, why aren't you done with this incredibly ambitious experimental project yet, Google?

Why? Lots of iterations... more than we thought. #ProjectAra

So there you have it. All your questions about Project Ara answered. Oh, you wanted details? Sorry, Google isn't interested in that.
