Thats why since you will make it inivite only, for sure there need The invite-only part is just a new construct in FAS. We'd have people applying for various groups that were not appropriate - 'accounts' comes to mind here, since I get all the spam of people applying for it, I'm sure there are many others. You have always required sponsorship/mentorship to work in Infrastructure - all that this change is doing is saying that you cannot apply to the group *in FAS* in order to relieve the overhead on the sponsors. > to be a mentor along with this new contributor to work closely with him.

Once you've accomplished that task, there's limitless other tasks to be accomplished, and you gradually "move up the ranks". so to speak, in terms of responsibility.
