Oh, come ON. NSI imposed an NDA on what was supposed to be a public learning
process. It doesn't take much to work out that it was imposed to ensure that
it is as hard as possible for newcomers to compete. 
An NDA that doesn't even allow participants to discuss the level of problems
is a travesty.
Oh, and does that mean poor old NSI is accused of being the source of all
problems. My heart weeps.
