can we expect beta screenshots, (possible) feature lists, and such? maybe sanctioned beta logs from a couple of the testers?

or is there too much fear of other companies cribbing MM's ideas?

It's probably more a fear of announcing things that then don't show up in the published game. Look at all the features listed for SE IV that never actually appeared. The ship_sizes file is full of unused options. It sure would have been great to have all those unimplemented fancy 'exclusions' and extra abilities for ships, wouldn't it? We had to wait for the Gold Version before we even got drones. If he goes announcing all his grand plans for SE V and then finds out they are too hard to implement, what then?
