Is anyone aware of the AdminGroup and ContributerGroup we have set up for
the wiki?

The intention would be to have all committers on the AdminGroup, then
anyone who wishes to edit the wiki any any way can be added to the
ContributersGroup. This would meant that we could enable contributers to
upload attachments, it would also enable all other uses to view
attachments, whilst reducing the possibility of spam.

If I can get an answer (if there is one) to the question above, I'll
progress with setting this up.
