Organization Members Resource Changes

Requesting the member list of an organization of which you are not a member now redirects to the public members list. Similarly, requests to membership check resources of an organization of which you are not a member are redirected to the equivalent public membership check. One exception to the latter case is that if you are checking about your own membership the request is not redirected. You are always allowed to know what organizations you belong to.

The changes where made to clarify the purpose of these various resources. The /orgs/:org/members resources are intended for use by members of the organization in question. The /orgs/:org/public_members resources are for acquiring information about the public membership of organizations. If you are not a member you are not allowed to see private membership information so you should be using the public membership resources.
