And this all begins THIS MONDAY. Hopefully the rumor-mill will prove true this time.
Also note that Oculus is scheduled to be involved in at least 9 different sessions; you can get the full list of GDC here:

Don't want to read through all the posts, but is all this about Beat Bloody Saber? When are they likely to talk about Rift S? I think I'm having a grumpy Big Mike just woke up moment.

Actually - I hope this might put more pressure on them to release sooner with smaller jumps than big jumps that take years and years. I dont want to see cell phone jumps every year - but considering it usually takes 2 years + 6 months to get to everyone - it might be worth going shorter jumps in this case to draw in more people that are looking for the next stage of improvements (like water/ice chipping away at rock).

We've had the Rift CV1 for 3 years, and everything we know about Quest and the rumored Rift-S comes in direct response to global sales not meeting expectations. So my comment is that Facebook doesn't give in to pressure from other Vendors. So far my point seems spot on; I don't see other vendors coming any closer to selling 1-billion units than Oculus. By all market standards, Oculus is the leader in VR right now with the combined sales of: GearVR, GO, and Rift. Not to mention that Oculus is the leader in "platform exclusives" for VR, as well as hand-controllers with Touch still being the defacto "best" implementation.I see zero evidence that any other Vendor is causing Facebook and Oculus to change course. You seem to be telling me that I might be wrong, which is fine. But you aint showing me yet.

For those of us waiting to order Quest, we probably won't see the official announcement and Order page until Wednesday when this presentation takes place:
