Ah, they've finally redone that horrible press release.

Here's the new version:

RINGWORLD: Based on Larry Niven's RINGWORLD series of novels, a four-hour
mini-series is in development. In the future four explorers crash on an
artificial structure in deep space, a mammoth ring that circles a distant star.
Exploring this strange place, the humans discover that there is life here and
secrets that could change the universe forever.

Note that they are STILL calling Louis Wu's motley crew HUMANS.

This could be very very very bad.

  It could also mean that the aliens either already know what
the humans learn (Nessus) or they are ot-nay oo-tay ight-bray and
never catch on (Speaker)....

Yeah, I don't think there's much of a chance of it being anything but
pretty awful.
