I wonder if there's a place for "confidential" forums - something "by invitation only" and maybe even with actual paper NDAs - maybe even "non-compete" agreements.
Maybe it's already going on - and I just haven't been invited
I'd put forth that there are a number of regular posters here (not necessarily me) who have very good insight into some of these areas and it might actually be to your advantage to include them in the discussion.
Just a thought, of course...
