Hi, I saw an add on the net for a product that sounded interesting. It was targeted for windows users, but the hardware device is what was intriguing. So I contacted the firm and asked if the programming specifications were available. Well, after some thought, they offered to release the specs under a NDA. When I mentioned that I would want to release any software that I write to use the device to the free Unix community in source form, they included what I believe is an attempt to accommodate this scenario. However, the terms of the NDA seem contradictory. Since the FreeBSD development community is concerned with the availability of free software, and I would develop the software using FreeBSD, is this a question that is proper for this forum? If so, I'll post the terms of the NDA for discussion. If not, where might be an appropriate place? Thanks! Dave Bodenstab imdave@synet.net
