well i would have to agree also.
Its one thing reducing the section to just coders but not giving viewing access is not a good idea. Lot of "novice" users can benefit from looking at the discussion and learn. I thouught that was also one of the main motives of the .org community. As it is a lot of people develop codes themselves for their own sites and on custom basis (i might as well say that i also fall into that) but don't go on to release them. Thats not just selfish or not wanting to contribute, thats mostly cos of time not being there to support them for everyone who installs or maybe some other logical reason. You can punish a bit by not allowing posting but not even allowing viewing is a bit too hard and pointless..
my 2 cents...
