Members page should be visible by all members

A couple of friends of mine told me that they could not find where this option was. Their first reaction was to search in the project's settings and I think that is correct.

In the left sidebar there should be items that are publicly visible.

Edit: I changed the title to be in par with the discussion so far.

@axil Got this question from a couple of Clients of us as well. for moving it to settings. Or make it also available in settings.

I'm ambiguous about this. Your reasoning is valid, but I'm inclined to think this is something that is used more often. I'll leave it up to @dzaporozhets z

@jvanbaarsen @JobV we had it in project settings but we moved it to left sidebar. Reasons:

1. every member should see other members of project
2. project settings should be visible only for master which conflicts with point 1.
3. it should be consistent with group settings too.

In the left sidebar there should be items that are publicly visible.

@axil not true. It should be items that are visible to project/group members. So members page should be always visible for group/project members

@dzaporozhets your reasoning is valid except from:

every member should see other members of project

Right now only masters and owners have this ability.

@axil ok in this case its a problem we should solve. Just open members page for project members.

Obviously management controls (add/remove/promote) should be visible only to masters

@JobV can you please schedule milestone for https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/5838#note_3118333?

Milestone changed to 8.5

Title changed from Members page should be in the settings area to Members page should be visible by all members

mentioned in merge request gitlab-com/www-gitlab-com!1382 (merged)

Milestone changed to 8.6

ping @DouweM

@axil Not gonna make it for 8.6, I'm afraid. Will reschedule after the 8.6 release. If we move everything that we didn't get in 8.6 to 8.7, we won't make 8.7 either, so we'll have to be selective.

Milestone changed to 8.7

Reassigned to @felipe_artur

@dzaporozhets Only members should be able to see other members even if project is public?

mentioned in merge request !3752 (merged)

@felipe_artur no I think if project is public everyone should see project members. You can see people in issue dropdown or @mention so no need to hide information that is already available.
