Short version: A British aeronautical engineer, working with a team, has come up with a 40 nautical mile radius area where they think MH370's wreckage will be found, and is looking for somebody to finance a search effort. Nobody has searched this area or committed to doing so.
He and his team claim to have performed a novel combination of a variety of data to come to this conclusion. From the article:
Mr Godfrey said it was a "complicated exercise", but previously there was simply a lack of lateral thinking, across multiple disciplines, to bring this together.
"No one had the idea before to combine Inmarsat satellite data, with Boeing performance data, with Oceanographic floating debris drift data, with WSPR net data," he said.

Just saying because when this disappearance happened, no one was even looking at the Rolls Royce engine data at the time, until someone mentioned it then it was looked at. The data/knowledge on the RR engines phoning home was given out on this BBC program. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00t0yx9 https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00t0yx9
