Yes. That’s why I suggested that you create a special category that includes only the group that you want to be able to edit the document before it is made public by moving it to the category where people could see it.

Or maybe you suspect that moving the topic to a public category will not generate a notification. I’m pretty sure that it will and that you can move it rather than create a new topic, but I haven’t tested that or checked the source lately. I think I’ve seen more complaints about people getting notifications that they don’t want than people complaining that they weren’t notified.
