I'd like us to go through all our current groups and for each
group choose from:
 o  KEEP using the current name
 o  Keep with a different name (RENAME)
 o  Keep as CML
 o  Keep only as METADATA that drives building TroveSets for other groups
 o  DELETE group entirely

Here are our groups.  I have tried to provide some initial suggestions
as a straw man.  Tell me why I'm wrong.

We'll need docs for everything we keep...

group-base
group-core

    KEEP group-base, delete group-core, but make group-base
    represent the minimal reasonable system to deploy.  Core
    Unix/POSIX tools, system configuration.  This includes
    partitioning and various filesystem utilities, core
    functionality like iptables and iscsi configuration,
    conary itself, but no X, no development, no documentation
    (that's what google is for!).  Current group-core is the
    closest match, but should be trimmed.

group-bootable

    CML (proper subset of base).  This should be the literal
    minimum that you should expect to boot.  Erase something
    from this set and the system does not boot.  Note that
    this does not include conary itself!
