How long had they been working on either of those before publishing? You're giving the end points of the research, the person you're replying to is saying the end point wasn't reached, hence it was still secret.

See if you can determine that for yourself by e.g. reading the second paper as far as the first sentence of the second paragraph and then looking at the publication date.

I'm not interested in reading those papers, especially as what's relevant are the dates, which means the burden is on the person presenting them to get the dates right, no one else. More importantly, they were missing the point, which was my point.

Your point? I'm not sure if you had one. Next time, just post the date up instead of some snarky RTFM that doesn't even fit the thread.
