Thanks for your feedback, Annelies.

A "new group member" notification is usually sent to the Group Admin
with someone joins a group. As you are group admin in your group, you
should get those. The notification does not get sent when the Group
Admin is also a Site Admin. This is a bug, that we expect to fix within
the next couple of months.

Any logged in group member can in fact see people's profiles, so you
you'll see whatever people have put on their profile. The only thing
that even admins can not currently see is email addresses. This is
currently necessary to prevent nefarious use of our system. It does,
however cause problems, as discussed in "Editing Group Members' Email
Addresses",

so we are working on a fix for this.
