Unfortunately, I don't have a good answer for this. I do understand the
need for privacy in discussing sensitive issue. I'll keep thinking and try
to propose a solution for this.

Unless I've missed something, I haven't seen anyone say they thought
membership would be restricted. By my count, there have only been three -1
votes, and one of them was mine. In summary (and maybe I'm misrepresenting
folks's concerns, so I apologize), here's what has been said in opposition:

   - Lorna said "open signup and obvious link to php.net are both very
   valuable IMO"
   - Mike Stowe said "I believe transparency is key, as well as the
   openness of the group"
   - I said "I think open source communities should remain open and
   transparent"

Eric voiced concerns, but has not yet cast a vote.

All other votes have been +1 or +0 (an acknowledgement but not a strong
opinion either way).
