Review under NDA (was RE: several messages)

I'm told my earlier message was unclear.

Unless our legal counsel changes my understanding, which I consider rather
unlikely, since I've already pursued the question, I am absolutely opposed
to reviewing code under an NDA (unless it is something unusual, like it
expires without prejudice in two weeks time).  I intend to continue being
very protective of the Foundation and our members, and that includes
preventing them from "contamination due to exposure to code."

Was just responding to a request to clarify my earlier reply to you and Ken.
I've nothing more to add.  :-)

I don't think any of us agree that it would be a bad idea; fortunately, no 
one currently is asking us to, and AFAIK no one has in the past.  Can we 
wait to really hash this out until someone does?
