There's another post on the WSO thread over in Germany citing an article in a daily newspaper published in Dresden on 05/24/00 (Saechsische Zeitung Dresden):

[I translate that into English but quote the German original for your own verification]

"Dresden. American chip maker AMD will bring Athlon CPUs built in Dresden to the market for the first time.

Upon request from SZ, AMD spokesman Jens Drews said: "We will introduce on June, 5th in Dresden a new product and will further disclose an important announcement."

Production is running since December in this most modern chip plant world-wide. Meanwhile final tests have been finished with surprising good results. These new microprocessors work by far faster by the use of the new copper technology. (SZ/ts)"


Dresden:
Chip-Premiere bei AMD am 5.Juni

Dresden. Der amerikanische Halbleiterhersteller AMD wird Anfang Juni
erstmals Athlon-Prozessoren aus Dresden auf den Markt bringen.
Auf Anfrage der SZ sagte AMD Sprecher Jens Drews:"Wir werden am
5.Juni in Dresden ein neues Produkt vorstellen und eine weitere wichtige Ankndigung bekanntgeben" Seit Dezember l„uft die Produktion in der weltweiten modernsten Chip-Fabrik. Inzwischen wurden die letzten Tests offenbar mit berraschend guten Ergebnissen abgeschlossen. Diese Prozessoren arbeiten durch die neue Kupfertechnologieweitaus schneller. (SZ/sts)"

I visited the web site of this newspaper in order to validate the source but unfortunately they don't have online access to their archive.
