    So everyone can expect immediate and full disclosure from PivX
    effective immediately? May I suggest you start with all the details
    regarding "unpatched," resurrection of that page, followed by
    "immediate and full" disclosure of every bug PivX has contacted
    Microsoft and every other vendor about. Ever. "Immediate and full"
    after all.
