NOTICE!
*******

As of version 0.40.00, the 'groups' file has been deprecated.  All 
functions defined here for the 'group' table have been moved into a new 
easier to work with table called 'members', which is maintained via 
the 'Maintenance' screen, under 'Group Lists'.

If you are using a version ealier than 0.40.00, then read on...

The 'group' table defines much of the behaviour of Keystone.  
This table may be edited via the Maintenance function, and 
consists of 3 fields:

	g_id		Group ID.  Up to 10 characters 
	g_assign	Whether this group id can be
			used when defining a slip.
	g_people	A list of login id's defining
			the members of this group.  Names
			are seperated by spaces.

'admin' group
	A userid listed in the 'admin' group can do system
	maintenance and change other users password.
		
'tech' group
	A list of userids that can have slips assigned to
	them.	

'topslips' group
	A list of Slip ID's (yes, I know they're not people,
	but the mechanism works) that are listed in the 'quickslips'
	pick, as well as are available for browsing on the visitor
	pages, and when opening new slips, depending on the config
	variables.  (see keystone.conf.default for details on
	setting 'toplevel' group handling)
