Wiki Groups

These groups can be used to define fine grained AccessControl in Foswiki:

Group	Members
BaseGroup	AdminUser WikiGuest UnknownUser ProjectContributor RegistrationAgent
AdminGroup	AdminUser Administrator lz410 pnt12 rc516 cef59 rv285 sjg30 jl221 ag495 cmtc3 kc429

New Group:
	Note: A group topic name must be a WikiWord and must end in `...Group`. New topics are based on GroupTemplate

IMPORTANT NOTE: Think twice before restricting write access to a web or a topic, because an open system where everybody can contribute is the essence of WikiCulture. Experience shows that unrestricted write access works very well because:

There is enough peer pressure to post only appropriate content.
Content does not get lost because topics are under revision control.
A topic revision can be undone by a member of the AdminGroup if necesssary.
