Re: New term "RDV" is born

The *REAL* questions should be:

is it "ohhhhh" day or is it "zero" day?

What is proper syntax?

0<space>day
0<dash>day
0<underscore>day
0day

Should you capitalize the D?

how about the Z if you choose to go with Zero?

Two months is still recently. Think about "In recent history we

The real problem here is that "0-day" originally meant "previously  
undisclosed
vulnerability/exploit".  The term lost its usefulness when all the  
hacker
wannabe's started posting "I found a 0-day", when what they really  
had was
a "*yawn*-we've-been-waiting-18-months-for-vendor-to-fix-day".
