How, and why, do these things get leaked? Is it in either Zynga's or Whereoscope's interest to get a little PR before a sale? In other words, is this sort of thing strategic, or a lack of discipline on one party's part?
Whatever the case, congratulations to both sides if this comes true.

But unfortunately when you are closing a sale there are a bunch of people you have to talk to (investors, lawyers, accountants etc) and it only takes one person with questionable scruples to email techcrunch.
