OK, the new and improved Open Membership community on G+
https://plus.google.com/u/0/communities/112982260903864057648

Nothing like a little hiccup right out the gates!
Walter, try G+ you might like it.  And there is a zintillionton (made up 
word.  I like it :) of technical content and interesting stuff to follow on 
there.  
In G+, you can add a + in front of a name and it is sort of like a CC on 
that topic.  So I could do +Walter and you would get, more or less, a push 
on that.  So if I respond to anything on G+ and I think you might be 
interested in it I just +Walter you in my message (which is private by the 
way between you and I).
Also in G+, if you +1 a stream or comment on a stream, basically interact 
with a stream, you'll get push notification from hence forth.  Of course 
you can change the level of notifications, etc.

I can't seem to figure out how to enable free membership to the community. 
 It doesn't seem to be any option to change it.

Walter, the most obvious way you get notifications from a G+ stream is on 
the black Google toolbar that appears on any Google site (when you are 
logged in).  You can login to your account and change how you are notified 
as well, such as by email, maybe txt (not sure), etc.

It's been my experience (since i got this address in 1994) that things that 
come to me, like mailing lists, get and maintain my attention; while things 
like forums (and their direct descendants -- Facebook and G+ and so forth) that 
require me to go look at them to find if anything is new fade away. I have lost 
count of the number of fora I have joined over the years, often to get 
community support for a particular problem, that I have never returned to again 
after my question was answered. Contrast that with my interaction with this 
mailing list, which has survived three platforms and two name changes, and by 
my count has resulted in me writing 791 posts since 2006. My initial messages 
were questions, and I stood on the shoulders of giants here. Lately the 
majority of my posts are answers to other people's questions. It's that part of 
the equation that I fear gets lost in a non-push environment, to the detriment 
of all.

You can turn notifications on for Google+ communities if you want
notifications. Those who don't want notifications, but want to look
occasionally could join and not turn on notifications.

Although having the community set so that you need to ask to join will
limit participation.

Serious question: what would the benefit be versus mail? How would you receive 
notification of new messages? Would you have to keep reloading the page?
