Why the forum needs registration even for reading?

I get the point about spam but the forum requires a captcha to register anyway so I don't see how making it public to view is going to reduce security (other than making it a more visible target)

I think a lot users tend to read forums a few times before deciding to sign up so if you want to attract more users then make it easier to access.
Also making the forum public and 'indexable' by search engines will mean more people are pointed here with queries and discussion on CDP.

I agree. This is probably the first forum ever I've signed up to read as it's usually too much of a hassle to register just to be able to do that.
