But it was inappropiate for an individual to take it upon themselves
to pass out information that could reasonably create a stampede of
email of folks whose sole purpose is to attempt to get an early
copy of the book.
I don't know who posted it to the newsgroup, but doing so,
especially without Ryan's permission was totally the wrong thing to
do. If he had wanted to post the information there, he could have
very easily rejoined (if he ever actually unsubscribed) to post that
information himself.
Personally, I think that if a person would take this step, I would not
trust them to honor the NDA. If a person on one of the newsgroups
were seriously interested in producing products for the d20 system,
they would have joined this mailing list to begin with.
