I formed this group to get people working on understanding the problems with Drupal.org. The idea was to do qualitative and quantitative analysis. I wanted to have some thoughtful data and a plan that could be funded for the re-design of Drupal.org.
Several of the subscriptions lately have not indicated what kinds of analysis they are willing to contribute. I don't want to see this group become a Drupal.org feature orgy.
Analysis can include: user interviews, mock-ups, usability experiments, user personas, surveys, and any form of data analysis of Drupal.org content, usage patterns, user experience visions, etc.
I am going to continue to reject subscriptions, even from qualified candidates , if they don't indicate in their subscription what they are going to contribute to the analysis of Drupal.org. People who are actively working to improve Drupal.org will be approved.
Cheers,
Kieran

Sounds good
Although I initially read it as saying we should not enable "subscriptions" on Drupal.org :P
Fair enough...
... except that one of the ways to track a group is to subscribe to it. As it is, filtering who can subscribe prevents posting and I guess seeing private posts, but not commenting, and makes it harder for people who may be able to offer more specific contributions to follow the discussion.
