The bragging by the discoverer made everyone start looking. Then when the PHP foundation made the announcement on the website there was a mad scramble. Up to 18 hours before release there were already demos. Look I get that it's a rock and a hard place but frankly at that point you should release the patch. I know there was a lot of fear over picking the wrong patch but having nothing is still bad.
