No, they didn't crawl my address book, or do anything of the sort.

On Google+, I follow people who I believe (or at least suspect) to be
intelligent or knowledgeable in technical fields. That includes everyone on
the gentoo-user and gentoo-dev mailing lists; you folks are among the
highest grade of computer and software geeks I've come across.

In the GMail web interface, there's a pane on the right which shows people
involved in the conversation. While reading Gentoo-related threads, if I
see people listed there that I haven't added to my 'Technical folk' circle,
I add them. I _thought_ it was only showing people who already had Google
accounts.

Apparently, that last presumption isn't true...and as a consequence, when I
add people to my list-of-people-to-watch, Google sends them an invite if
they don't already have Google accounts. Apologies for any spam, but
understand that I have no clear way of knowing whether or not someone has a
Google+ account before I add them; people who don't have them simply show
up as 'this person hasn't shared anything with you.'
