Finding the bugs is great, however reporting security flaws to vendor-sec and 
allowing vendors to coordinate in releasing the right fix at the same time is 
better for the end users and community.  Just dumping a new vulnerability a 
day to public space is just creating chaos.  Vendors will scramble to fix the 
flaw, different patches will be used, updates will be rushed out, etc...
