They aren't discussing anything illegal, political, religion or hate speech. If A developer wants to tell everything he wants to tell about RE SDK he shouldn't be censored by Admins, it's PH business to enforce their NDA.
I presume that you admins who signed the NDA are responsible for yourself, not what other dev disclose.
IMHO, this kind of censorship will give bad vibes of the forum, with posts and topics being so slow. You guys should encourage discussions about Reason and all related, not oppose it.
Otherwise, you could drive this forum into a "Discover" forum, and leave the real Reason discussions to other forums like KVR, gearslutz etc.

I was merely reminding Devs that specific SDK discussion stuff is off-limits per their agreement with PH, as someone else happened to post such a request on a different thread.
So please reread my other response:

So I'm not sure which bits of that are unclear, so I'll repeat: this thread was not locked because it is a

But discussion of how to use the SDK is not allowed: we signed an NDA, we need a working relationship with Propellerhead, so I won't allow that, and I'm sure Richard, avasopht and Scuzzy above appreciate that view. There is an official PH forum for developers, that, more importantly, PH staff can offer valuable assistance, that won't be the case here. We're being practical and pragmatic.
No, this is not PUF, but we have to try our best to use a bit more common sense.
SDK RE details are 100% a Reason subject that can't be discussed here, just because you don't want too, what ever your motivations are. That's censorship.
While I understand that some topics like hate speech, politics & religion can't be discussed in a Reason related forum, the Rack Extension SDK improvements and details ban is 100% wrong in my view.
IMHO, this ReasonTalk self censorship it's like Gearslutz banning pictures showing the insides of gear. But hey, instead of banning, they made it sticky:
