I get the sentiment, but that's just not practical in all cases.  Not
everything we can share with employees can be shared with community
members, signed NDA or no. That's the reality of commercial partnerships,
and it's simply not viable to demand that every potential partner share our
bias toward openness.

That said, Bugzilla is not the right level to have this discussion.  How we
control/grant access to sensitive information should be the subject of
overall policy and guidance that applies across all systems and groups.  We
must balance risk and reward in terms of who we share information with,
especially for any information involving partners. There are people looking
at creating a clear taxonomy for dealing with various forms of sensitive
information (primarily tied to partnerships and our legal obligations
therein), which I consider to be an important prerequisite for any
discussion about bug groups or implementation details.

I strongly agree with the sentiment that we should strive to be more open
where possible and where openness will help us collectively act in the
interests of the mission. My belief is that's going to be a much easier
conversation to have once we have a workable taxonomy we can look at and
discuss.  Given that, I'd like to propose that we table this conversation
until that taxonomy is ready for discussion.
