To join a group, you must first have an account. Once you have an account, long in to the website and go to your memberships page under the Options link in the upper right menubar. Then scroll down to the section labelled "Request membership in a group". Use the form, following the links on that page to additional help information is needed. You can become a Member of the group, which will put you on the group's mailing lists and give you write access to the group's workspace. You can also become a Guest of the group, which will generally (but not always -- it depends on the group configuration) allow you to read restricted pages belonging to the group, but you will not be on the mailing lists or be able to modify those pages.
