Hi You will find below a question and its answer coming from :
http://www.fsf.org/licensing/licenses/gpl-faq.html#DoesTheGPLAllowNDA Does the GPL allow me to distribute copies under a nondisclosure agreement? No. The GPL says that anyone who receives a copy from you has the right to redistribute copies, modified or not. You are not allowed to distribute the work on any more restrictive basis. If someone asks you to sign an NDA for receiving GPL-covered software copyrighted by the FSF, please inform us immediately by writing to [EMAIL PROTECTED] If the violation involves GPL-covered code that has some other copyright holder, please inform that copyright holder, just as you would for any other kind of violation of the GPL. I would like to have an answer from Android team about this FSF position about NDA and by extension I would like to know if Android Team plan to publish new release to all of us. All of us got big damages by the fact that we are locked and that we cannot compete anymore with people having last release. Some young company, who invested a lot around android are now completely stuck because of this issue. In any case it seems to me that most of Android community think that it is not fair to keep private new release of SDK.
