Group (aka Team)

A Group (previously called Funding Group) in Robbie is a collection of Users who share a common goal, for example, a college course or research project. Groups make it easy for administrators, like Professors or Principal Investigators) to purchase and allocate funds (Tokens) to users and control what hardware they use for their Runs. For example, a college Professor could create a Group for one of her classes and only permit her students to use a low-end CPU for their homework assignments.

Users can create a Group by inviting other users and allocating some or all of their Personal tokens to these users. A user who created a Group is by default assumes the Group Administrator role and can add/delete Users, allocate funds, and further fund the group.
