opening up the forum?

Unless there's another requirement of which I'm not aware, the only restriction is three non-trivial critiques before posting own work.  My take is, might be worthwhile to relax that requirement and see what happens... but leave at least a ghost of selectivity, perhaps the one-per-day limit (extended to all forums, not just crit forums?) and, say, that a new member's first two own-work submissions cannot be in Intensive/Serious Workshopping.  Easy enough to just move them to Moderate if any newbies transgress that.
