OK. But lets look at a group like on:
http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/stats/team/team_a_0_1.html
there are a lot of groups (like #3) that have no members, no results,
nothing! Why not disband these groups automatically?!

Why?  What is gained by the administrative overhead of implementing and
rigorously testing the automation?  Who cares whether they are active
now,
or not?  Storage cost of few bytes of database storage versus the
development cost of a whole new application branch.  No brainer...


Well... I guess you're right. But I wanted a name (for a group) that
already
was occupied   :-(
And there weren't any members!

Can you find the founder?

No, but I've already chosen another name.
I've changed my mind a bit. It isn't important what kind of groups there
are, it's imporant to calculate WU's!    ;-)
