Hello Alex, You ask an excellent question.
You are correct. As you stated, questions about how to sign up for the beta programs or downgrading devices are fine. However, beta-specific questions or details, any issues covered by an NDA, should not be posted-on-list.

List members can post questions *about* testing, correct? Downgrading, signing up, un-enrolling devices, and the like are all fine, as they aren't covered by NDA. It's only questions specific to a beta (is this bug fixed in the new beta, and such) that are the problem? This has long been my understanding of the policy on this and other lists, but I wanted to check now that it's come up. > On Nov 6, 2015, at 23:04, M.
