[Link: groups.yahoo.com]I assume the above link will get a non member of the group to a different page than a member gets. It should be obvious and easy to join from that point.
If you want access to the files and don't want messages emailed to you, be sure to select the option (somewhere in the join new group form) that says you want to read messages via web rather than email.
I also assume it's easy to quit the group after getting the files, if the files were all you were after, but we do update the files from time to time and it's a good place to ask IR protocol questions if you have any.
