Access to subgroups


 

I own a restricted group with private archives. This group has a subgroup which has public archives, no moderation and an open membership. Could anyone., especially not a member of the parent group,? join it and post messages despite the parent group having restricted membership and private archives?

According to all the documentation, and other's experience, you must be a member of the parent group before you can join a subgroup there.

Could you set up the other way around, make a public group and a restricted subgroup?
(If GIO lets one do that.)
