A topic from AEG's L5R CCG Rules forum, copied for Oracle of the Void from the Wayback Machine (its copy), so posts it didn't save are missing. Players' names are left out; the rules officials are named. Rulings are as they stood on these dates; later rulings, the rulebooks and the Rules Archive may differ.

Questions you ask concerning Enemy of My Enemy preview cards will not be answered until the set releases in April. There is a policy against answering questions about cards before they are released (due to last minute card text changes, etc.). All the members of the Rules Junta are following that policy.
(Edit: Changed text after confirming Marty and Jeff aren't answering preview questions, either.)

I'm posting here to bring attention to the change. We will begin answering questions on cards, Strongholds, and rules changes in Enemy of My Enemy beginning April 1st, to aid those preparing to play or adjudicate prerelease tournaments.
Our general policy of not answering questions on cards in a new set concurrent with the very beginning of previews remains in place, due to the possibility of last-minute changes at press time that render previews inaccurate, as well as the large number of questions based on speculative, counterfeit, or unauthorized spoiler material.
