Anything that is filed and recorded (like business licenses) are public records with very few exceptions (like personal or confidential information), which I doubt will include growing operations. Even though it looks somewhat encouraging for dispensaries, it does not seem so for growers who are some of the favorite targets of the Fed despite state regulations. I am naive in thinking that the Fed will ever come around...they (especially the DEA) are rabid in their crusade to eradicate the alleged evils of marijuana - just take a look at their website.

In as much as I would like to be open about growing without the attendant fear and paranoia, until some miracle occurs on the Fed level, I reckon it be prudent to stay low...the low-life.
