Bob: Not sure if inventing new dedicated groups / status ("inactive") is going to be very helpfull.

We already have descriptions for groups, and thats why i was sugggesting that simply updating the statuses of groups is IMHO most flexible - in many cases you want to redirect new trafic to othrer groups for example. How ? Just write it into the group description...

Cheers
