Who really cares what the definition of 0-day is to you or that you think
everyone uses it wrong? In the grand scheme of things you're like the rest
of us, you don't really matter.

Okay. I think we exhausted the different views, and maybe we are now able
to come to a conlusion on what we WANT 0day to mean.

What do you, as professional, believe 0day should mean, regardless of
previous definitions?

Obviously, the term has become charged in the past couple of years with
the targeted office vulnerabilities attacks, WMF, ANI, etc.

We require a term to address these, just as much as we do "unpatched
vulnerability" or "fully disclosed vulnerability".

What other such descriptions should we consider before proceeding?
non-disclosure?
