Most of the time I first look at a few posts of a list before joining, just to get an idea if the list is actually what I'm interested in. Restricting topic visibility to group members only makes doing that impossible. In fact, that's just what I did before writing this email. I wanted to see what kind of messages are on the list/group before making up my mind if I want to be a part of it. So unless there's some strong reasons to keep it member-only, I vote for opening it up. > - Post: Group members only.

If you're looking for mentorship, or are providing mentorship, you should at least join the group :) > - Join group: Anyone.
