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

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 TWikiAdminGroup if necesssary.
