No.  Presumably all SGs are open to observation by the entire public  
(including those who wish to join the SG).

No, so same reason as above.

No.  And also we are the "Non-Commercial Stakeholder Group" (not the  
"Non-Commercial and Individual SG" as it says above - so that needs  
to be corrected in the text).
