The announcement you quoted I'm sure presents some of the highlights of
the actual agreement, but might omit important details.  Without looking
at the settlement, we do not know what those details are and how
important they are.

I'm inclined to think that at least one of the parties would be harmed
or embarrassed if the settlement became public -- otherwise they would
have just posted it, on or near the same web page where the complaint
was posted.
