Why not?

Just my preference.


And what kind of access controls to do plan to set up to effectively prevent this one from becoming public?

There is a number that *could* be used.

1. Don't allow user discovery, so even if you register, someone would have to invite you (or vice versa)

2. Don't allow public registration

3. Only allow registration based on mailing list membership

My initial thought was just that the more active members of the project would use it. For example the web team, the fundraising team etc...

Hackers might want to use the muc portion to have closed room conversation about patches or problems they are trying to overcome etc...
