Background

The Grouper Working Group is a result of the MACE-Dir-Groups' initial efforts.

Grouper is an open source toolkit for managing groups

. It is designed to function as the core element of a common infrastructure for managing group information across integrated applications and repositories. Grouper combines multiple sources of group information, both automated and manual, in managing memberships and other group information in a Group Registry, a central information asset complementary to a site's Person Registry.
Grouper manages two primary types of objects: groups and namespaces. Groups are created and named within a namespace. Group management authority can be limited and delegated by naming stem or group, and naming stems may themselves be arranged in a hierarchy

and access to resources.
