Notes
A group name denotes a set of entities. It is used for broadcast, security, workflow, and identity. It can refer to individuals, groups, or a set of replicated objects.
Groups do not need explicit names. A thread is a group of messages with the same subject. A range is a subset of ordered objects. A process may be an index into a group of processes.
A group can have properties like an individual. But it is better to authenticate individuals instead of authenticating the group. (cbb 12/00)
