Great post and  it's made me understand it a bit more; I'd love to hear your thoughts on the fact that the vulnerability was announced and the DAO was still launched.

Glad I could help.

Well, that bothered me a bit as well.. it was announced right before the creation phase ended. It wasn't until the first splits were approved that the exploit could have been executed, so that forced the timeline. 

So, it wasn't until after the creation phase started that the vulnerability was made known to the public. I would guess that is a thread to pull at, but I don't have enough information to go off of there.

Yeah seems to a noob like me, that the whole thing should have been put on hold till they were certain it had been fixed. 

But what do I know, right?
