So the preference amongst ambassadors and the company is for more secrecy?

I’ll bite. This is a mixed question for sure. Product development and release
of information are what need to be kept secret absolutely. The people who work
on marketing plans and developing new things are dependant on the information
not getting out so that those companies with faster response times on their
production can’t bring out a competing product line before or at the same time
as ours (same old story...I know, but no less true today than it was before).
Now, we run into the problem of the information being thrown out from every
direction in ways that we’re constantly having to be vigilant about; catalogues,
S@H servers being scanned, online sites not guarding their product list are all
included in this list. A lot of people in the company are learning the hard way
that the internet complicates things, which is scary to some people, hence a
more conservative approach.
its always interesting to hear about the development process on a lot of things,
but sometimes it just isn’t a prudent business decision to have it outlined in
public all the time. That being said there are a lot of neat facts that will
come out in the future. The real question is, what’s more interesting, the
mystery or the answers?
