Interesting, would you mind sharing about the work you
plan? (Preferably in a separate thread)

Requiring an account to post is understandable, but I'd make
any forum public for reading by default unless there are reasons
not to. Subscribing to read posts is not a big barrier, but people
are driven by curiosity, and if you need to take administrative
steps before reading a post it can turn you away.
