This confused me too, when I was working with the lawyers to get the
license set up. Read the license for the full details, but (only from
memory, not guaranteed to be accurate) there is language in there saying
that if we have not officially disclosed something, then you can not talk
about it, but if we have talked about something, then you can too.
So it isn't an NDA; it is a license that might apply to confidential
materials but also applies to things that aren't secret, but still
shouldn't be distributed and/or aren't finished and so forth. In short it
makes it so that you don't have to keep accepting different licenses for
each different thing we seed in that area; you just do the one and you're
set.
At PalmSource in December we gave full details about 4.0's features and
such. So go ahead and talk about it. If there's something that needs
fixing in 4.0, we need to know soon.
