Baishok's statement from the official forum

Guys, we are very close to starting the closed public beta test for Diablo III, soon you will start seeing new materials regarding the beta client online, as we are beginning a phase of closed testing with employees and their families, in which there will be NO NDA. Very soon we will share new information about the beta test, stay tuned.

If you have access to the beta, you can freely share information about your testing, as this beta test is not confidential (translation - horadric.ru)

FYI, we’re getting very close to starting the closed public beta test for Diablo III. You might start seeing some new reports about the beta client as we’ve begun limited external testing with employees and their families, and there is no non-disclosure agreement (NDA) for that. We look forward to sharing more info about the beta test in the near future. Stay tuned.

If you have a beta license, you are free to show, share, or talk about any portion of the beta content to which you have access, as this beta test is not confidential.
