Who a group belongs to and how someone comes to be in it.

;'''Name''': What the group is called. It appears at the top of every page in the group and in the address of those pages, so a short name reads better in a link than a long one. Once a group has been created its name is fixed.

;'''Owner''': The account that may change these settings. Only the owner and the root account see this form at all. Putting another user's name here hands the group over to them, and you will not be able to change it back yourself afterwards.

;'''Register''': How someone joins.

  • '''No One''' - nobody new can join. Members already in the group

stay.

  • '''By Request''' - anyone may ask, and the owner lets them in or

does not.

  • '''Public''' — anyone with an account joins by pressing a button.
  • '''Public and Fee''' - as above, once they have paid the amount

you set.

  • '''Invite Only''' - the group does not appear when someone browses

for one to join, and the owner adds people by name.
