It appears to me that actually you're not in the dark :)
The time is needed to write social posts, create a nice picture to accompany them and maybe a short news article.
When setting up the contest, we've planned in some buffer time, both for that, and in case anything needs to be clarified first.
So the announcement date has already been set to Tuesday since the start of the contest, and everyone in the general public is expecting it to be at that date.
Of course every contributor or reader of this mailing list is free to make their own calculations or to ask for the result early, e.g. to prepare the About Screen for the program, just please don't publish them yet.

Thank you everyone for your votes!
The Contributors voting is closed now.
The winner will be announced on Tuesday!
Wait what.
What's the wait? The result isn't a secret, I've run the numbers minus Maren's vote and it's there's a clear winner. I don't understand the need to keep the project in the dark.
