I found I wanted something more flexible, where I could have published (not 
editable documents) and shared documents as well as the ability to define 
multiple groups on my hub. I created a couple of simple scripts to do this. 
I think they could be called from a web page in the Jupyter Hub 
administration pages. However, I am not in a position to spend the time 
writing the necessary code/templates. Anyway, in case this is useful my 
scripts are available on github(https://github.com/gutow/tljh_grp_utils).

Regards,
Jonathan
