As miners can begin producing blocks containing version 1 BIP9. Currently it is working on SegWit testnet and regent, and therefore miners may want to test the program now, while she still does not start completely.
You can draw a parallel between the starting SegWit and presidential elections. Voting rules for SegWit were agreed, voting machines prepared, and campaign platform offered for public inspection.
