Hrm. >From a marketing point of view, wouldn't it have been better to beat the press to the punch? I mean, instead of having a news agency post that there's a vulnerability, if we had released a press release, we could have said "Yes, there's a small, user-interativity required vulnerability, but a patch is in final QA and is going to be released any time now".
