I second Rahul's opinion. I wouldn't want to build high barreers, but I'd prefer to have them. Apart from that, I have never found it a problem to join the Commons. In particular, considering my own invitation which came basically with the first patch.
Apart from that, the more important part, as far as I am concerned, is the policy of whether and when I may commit to subprojects. I am sure, that most of us would consider it a rude behaviour if I'd simply start committing to a subproject without a silent or explicit confirmation or even invitation by the subprojects members. If that policy applies to subprojects, then I can't see, why anyone should be considered a member of commons without being a member of at least one subproject.
