Hi Folks,

To simplify the Slicer G+ community management, I was thinking to change the settings so that anyone could join without approval.

It has been like this for ITK for a while and they didn't have any spam.

If we all agree, I will:

  (1) update the following wiki page and accept all pending requests:

     http://wiki.slicer.org/slicerWiki/index.php/Documentation/Nightly/FAQ/BarCamp#Moderators:_How_to_approve.2Freject_requests_.3F

  (2)  also update the "Start Here" page to ask develop to optionally introduce them self on the slicer devel list. See http://wiki.slicer.org/slicerWiki/index.php/Documentation/Nightly/Developers/StartHere


Let me know what you think,

Thanks
