Our initial assumption was that the three most basic group management calls were:
- Is this person a member of this group?
- List the members of a group
- List all the groups for which a given person is a member

U Dub’s eight most heavily used Group ops	Chris Hyzer’s top three group operations
1) isMember (or hasMember)	1) isMember (or hasMember)
2) getMembers (of a group)	2) getMembers (of a group)
7) get/search Groups (of a member)	3) getGroups (of a member)
3) getGroup
4) putGroup
5) getAllMembers (of a group)
6) putAllMembers (of a group)
8) put/delete member to/from Group

- Maarten Kremers confirmed that VOOT2 is only about GETs.
- VOOT2 protocol expressed as valid swagger2. See VOOT2 swagger yaml used for input into editor.swagger.io (to obtain resulting swagger API documentation

SCIM: See both the Protocol Specification RFC7644 and Core Schema Specification RFC7643. Marlena Erdos comment: Quite rich group operations for read (and search) and write, quite fully documented -- and quite low level. Applies to a client contacting a server (natch, but this in contrast to Grouper)
