More Deus Ex: Human Revolution Code Clues

Eidos Montreal's Stephane D'Astous tweets another clue for the coded message from Deus Ex: Human Revolution, following this hint from earlier. The new message says: "DXHR's treasure hunt ... i have been told to tweet this important message 'a d / u k / w 0' ... good luck to all." Meanwhile Jean-François Dugas tweets: "7 2 / m 1 / . 4," and Sebastien Bisch offers a hint: "think about WHO and you'll find WHERE, eventually." Here's the sequence we have so far in as close as we can figure to the original order:

Original message from the game:

    okM8-+Ds4Dui?lMh$Mzvm14SBqe7;G.l6=u74b?mkh-45Ki60d+98XBpCku7

Also from the game:

    5 - / ! f / f q / x c / q y / d 3 / ? x / t $ / j #

Via this tweet:

    a d / u k / w 0

Via this tweet:

    r 5 / i e / y p

Via this tweet:

    7 2 / m 1 / . 4

It seems that the rewards you get, at least whatever is shown in the bottom left hand corner, go by too quickly for me to read them. I didn't start using nukes until yesterday, either. Man, I had 45 of them sitting there. It's so much easier now that I use them. I didn't realize you could cap the red main node. I know about the nukes, I use them if there's like a 5 rated node I need to cap and all the rest is 1's or 2's, I can cap it without setting off alarm. Also, there's a perma list of rewards on lower RIGHT that lists your money/xp/software rewards (which are the ones that persist after the hack). Lower left disappears its true, but lower RIGHT does not as long as you are in the hack. Also there's a summary screen of rewards once you finish the hack. The different nodes and what they do are noted in the hack help (I think there's a help button on the hack screen). For instance, the CLEARANCE nodes reduce all data (reward) nodes by 2.
