ALL these specs but still no mention of ISO.

Not one of the "specs" you've seen is an actual specification from the company. It's all just rumor sites, which are meaningless. You could say "I heard it's native 32,000 ISO!" and be as accurate as some of these rumor sites.
If it's not an official press release from the company, then there is no assurance, guarantee, or even reason to be optimistic that it's official and valid specs.
For that matter, has the company actually said they'll be revealing specs on the GH5 at CES? I haven't seen a press release from them saying that they're going to say anything about the GH5 at CES. Maybe they will, maybe they won't. I would guess they will, but until you see something FROM THEM confirming that they will, then it's just baseless speculation at this point.
Right, Barry. We only know that Panasonic is going to have a press conference at CES on the 4th (at least the picture of the invite above looks legitimate). We don't know what they are going to be talking about at the press conference. For all we know it could just be their latest microwaves and DVD players, since CES is a general consumer electronics show.
A few hours ago, the Consumer Reports has published a very generic piece on the camera biz at the CES. It contained nothing specific, so I decided not to link. Do they know anything ahead of time? Do they know nothing? The article was horribly bland and lacked exclamation points that I am so used to off these rumor sites.
The 43Rumors did show the upcoming Panasonic GF9 camera. If Panasonic won't ship GH5 until the spring'17, they might as well wait until the CP+ in February to reveal full specs. As it is, it's been teased long enough.

Well... Panasonic released these specs:
60p/50p 4:2:2 10-bit 4K video (in camera)
8mp 60fps burst photo

Not quite. All of their official material has said "4K 60P" and "4K 10-bit 4:2:2", but not together. Meaning that 10-bit 4:2:2 most likely only goes up to 30p, and above that (so 60P) is probably 8-bit 4:2:0. Actually now that I think about it, I think one of their graphics/slideshows actually explicitly said "4K 10-bit 4:2:2 30fps", so that seems like a pretty sure thing.
I'm more worried that the 60p will be windowed/cropped, like all 4K is on the GH4. Although if it's a 20MP sensor that would be a huge crop and I think they know better than that.

The interview is 4k 60P! Not GH4.

Where do you see 4K?
It was there - 2160 at 60p. And my internet began to buffer, so I had to downshift to 1440 at 60P.
If you open the link on YouTube you can then select 4K 60p as the playback format. ( meaning it was uploaded to YouTube as a 4K 60p video )
And if you browse the interview frame by frame it is true 4k 60P.
