I don't make it a habit to lie, so there is very little I can say. This is why I have not participated in many Dust related conversations recently, there is only so many times you can say "I can't comment" before you start to feel like an idiot.
Like pointed out, we are bound by NDA, and all we can do (and have done, trust me) is to advice CCP to be more open with the community. They have their reasons to remain silent, and agree with them or not, that's how it is. They will talk when they are ready. So, no, I can't just pop in and say "it's ok", when a) I can't reveal anything I know and b) what I do know is subject to change anyway. That is my personal view on the matter though, I am not speaking on behalf of the rest of the CPM.

The CPM is not part of the decision making process, in either development or communication. Generally speaking, we tend to have a chance to offer feedback and suggestions, though on some topics we are merely informed of what is happening before the community as a whole. So, no, CPM are not part of the dev team.

I can safely say none of them have the constitution to be that bold.
I personally wouldn't have signed a legal contract without intending to honour it.

My point is that much of the CPMs silence is really not by choice. CCP's on the other hand....
Pretty much exactly this.
Even if it was the CPM's job to do damage control for CCP (it's not, by the way), there is very little we could do, not while CCP is in quiet mode. I know it can be hard to understand for some, when you don't have the context of being under the NDA and knowing what we do, but many of these so called simple statements that everyone assumes wouldn't break the NDA really aren't quite as simple.
Community representative doesn't mean the CPM represents CCP to the community, but the other way around. Only CCP has the tools to put out the fires, and they will use them if and when they choose to. And I'm done commenting on that here, all of this has been repeated enough times that it's becoming silly.
