'''Name'''
* Is used to specify the name of the new Group.

'''Register'''
* Says how other users are allowed to join the group:
* No One means no other user can join the group (you can still invite
other users).
* By Request means that other users can request the group owner to join
the group.
* Anyone means all users are allowed to join the group.

'''Access'''
* Controls how users who belong/subscribe to a group
other than the owner can access that group.
* No Read means that a non-owner member of the group cannot read or
write the group news feed and cannot read the group wiki.
* Read means that a non-owner member of the group can read the group
news feed and the groups wiki page.
* Read Comment means that a non-owner member of the group can read the

'''Voting'''
* Specifies the kind of voting allowed in the new group.
* + Voting allows users to vote up posts and users,
* - Voting allows users to vote down posts and users.
* +/- Voting allows users to vote up and down posts and users..

'''Post Life time'''
* Specifies How long the posts should be kept.

'''Encryption'''
* Says whether the posts in this group should be encrypted on the server.
It does not enable encryption of wiki pages or media uploaded to a group.
Enabling encryption means that posts will no longer be searchable. Once
you choose a group as encrypted, you are not able to change it to be unencrypted.
Similarly, you can't change an unencrypted group into a encrypted one. Yioop
maintains two databases a private and public one. Encrypted posts are stored
in the public database, group keys needed to decrypt and display them are stored
in a private database. Each post is encrypted using the group key and a unique per
post random salt vector. The idea is if an intruder steals only one of the
two databases it will be difficult for them to decrypt the posts.
