Alright fine since we can't agree.. how's this. You don't have to post in
this thread and those of us who want to talk about it will since there are
no undisclosed features that we'd be disclosing outside of the provisions of
the EULA.

Agreed, the Tablet PC Edition 2005 superset is included in Windows XP
Service Pack 2, Release Candidate 2, which available to the public. There
are proper public preview newsgroups for those discussions. Discussion
beyond RC2 is still prohibited, which is why I'm attempting to tell you
any
post RC2 discussions are not valid here.

Post RC2 builds are not available to the public as part of the preview
program, and if a user has post RC2 builds they are (1) a technical beta
tester with access to the proper technical beta newsgroups for discussion,
or (2) a thief.

In the case of #1 above, the proper channels are available and should be
used. In the case of #2, they know what they can do with the build
they're
running. The Tablet PC Edition 2005 superset is not yet a released
product,
and therefore only "supported" in the proper beta/preview newsgroups.

Okay well you can stop saying NDA cause there's no NDA. And like I said
before, the EULA only prevents you from disclosing features not made
public
by Microsoft. Since there are no undisclosed features in the POST RC2
build,
we're free to talk about it. That's the bottom line.

Josh, what has been available to the public is the preview edition.
What
is
going on within the technical beta IS covered by NDA/EULA and may not
be
discussed outside the technical beta newsgroups.

1) I said Lonestar, not Longhorn. Lonestar was being actively
discussed
including the new TIP, new SDK, etc in these newsgroups for months.

2) Don't confuse a EULA with a NDA. They are two different things
entirely.
NDA's are legally binding, EULAs are not. The worst that can happen
with
a
EULA is your software license is terminated.

3) The provision in the EULA for non-disclosure is about new features.
Since
SP2 was feature complete by the first RC, we are all at liberty to
talk
about any version.

4) I never said I was not in the beta newsgroups. I simply said I'm
not
prohibited from talking about it on here. I have been on the beta,
technical
preview whatever you want to call it since it was first available to
those
outside Microsoft. I am not talking about the public beta.
