No it's not, least of all for something you intend to release for
free. Can you explain why you don't want people to know what you're
working on? The traditional reason of not wanting someone to compete
with you is asinine enough to begin with when speaking of a general
concept rather than specific innovations or actual code, and even
worse when you intend to release the final project for free.
Also, closed-source freeware is so 1990s. Why not GPL it or
something?
