I think an agreement not to release any original Broadcom documents to
the general public would be acceptable, as long as they understand and
agree that the driver would be open-source and that therefore some
information would indirectly be published. Of course, I can only speak
for myself, other people might disagree.

In fact, that's pretty much what I suggested in a follow-up eMail. I'll
see what their position is. Broadcom has been somewhat cooperative
regarding open-source projects in the past, so maybe something can
actually be worked out.
