Groups has been tested and works perfectly well with .69 -- and the last 
time it was tested with the .7 branch it worked just fine.

If you are not using simian you must have the xmlrpc groups connector 
enabled.

There is no Simian specific groups configuration variables.  Groups were 
refactored to use the same GroupsServerURI configuration variable for 
both the Simian and the XmlRpc Groups connectors.

This caused some difficulty with existing configurations with users of 
.69 -- it was requested that any patches to .69 branch not require 
changes to users existing configurations, so a fix was applied to that 
branch that allows the .69 version of the xmlrpc groups connector to use 
the old (XmlRpcServiceURL) or new (GroupsServerURI) configuration variable.

Anyone using .7 / master/HEAD -- will need to switch from the old 
variable name to the new variable name, as specified in the 
OpenSim.ini.example file.
