If the board has all the footprints, i.e., there is a pad for every node in the net list, it is simple to load the netlist, globally edit all the comments to something innocuous, then dump the net list. It will not contain any of the original part type information, just reference designators, footprints, and nets. (This is Design/NetlistManager/Menu/.... I forget the exact name, but it is *not* the command that generates a net list from connected copper. It is the other one, that just dumps what is loaded into all the pads.) (This is a discussion of how to clean out part type information from a PCB so as to be able to share it publicly without jeopardizing IP.)
