Re: so_rules clarification

All VRT rules are available to registered users 30 days after their release.
 The 30 days delay has nothing to do with the SO rules themselves.

Thinking about the Dynamic Rules (so_rules) and had a question. Since one
of the stated reasons for the so_rules is to obfuscate vulnerability
information (maybe I'm wrong about that?):

Do ALL the VRT subscription so_rules get released to the public so_rules
set after 30 days, or does this depend on the whether or not the vender has
released patches for the vulnerabilities/attacks being detected?

Do some of the VRT so_rules never make it out to the public rules?
