Right, I think the use of "0-day" as "stolen, unreleased software by software pirates" predates the current use.
The other commenter is right, there's a lot of overlap in the communities. It's strange to me that I was in the "field" a good 20 years before I ever thought it would be a career opportunity. This is not a complaint by any means. :-)
