A message from the OrthodoxNews group below. I read a few forums who are debating the veracity and/or finality of such a report, so I post this without any corroboration. Take it for what it's worth.
I received the Jan-Feb 2010 issue of "The Voice of Holy Trinity," the parish bulletin of Holy Trinity Serbian Orthodox Church in Moraga, CA:
Under Western American Diocese Report, submitted by Ron Radakovich, VP, Diocesan Council
"Father Gerasim of our Platina Monastery accepted a new prestigious assignment with the OCA, Orthodox Church in America. He is now the Bishop of Alaska for the OCA. Father Gerasim served liturgy at Holy Trinity on a number of occasions. He will be greatly missed by our Diocese, but his elevation is most deserved."

I think it was not secret that he was the #1 candidate, but surely Fr Gerasim hasn't actually been consecrated yet! There would have been a big announcement and photos and everything!
