This piece of information were released as their paper got accepted in the Astrophysical Journal.
And I do think the title refers to the fact that they have gotten data for all known planets. Interestingly the text say that they have found one apparent chemical imbalance in the atmospheres of the planets. Which might be read as that the planets are different than what our current models do predict for planets at the distance they have from their sun.
