user can't join an open group?
Hi,
another user (pibmaclean, a student in one of my courses) is having trouble joining our class bibliography (group 51961), even through the group is open. I think that initially, I had maintained the group as closed; Peter applied to join the group, and then I opened it up. He now seems to be in an orphan status w/ respect to the group -- he can neither join nor leave, his application is permanently 'pending'. A anything I can do, or he can do, or an admin can do? Thanks much,
Matt

fcheslackAs a temporary fix an admin can now see the applications even after the group is changed to open membership. In the near future it will change to automatically accept pending applications when the group changes to open membership.
