The problem with PSD, at this time, is that it is distributed as part of the
Photoshop SDK.  The SDK includes OTHER material that requires NDA, so folks
who just want the PSD format docs end up in an unfortunate situation.  I
continue to work on separating them out - though, as John Nack said in his
blog, we really don't want folks using PSD for interchange...
