date	date this file was uploaded
minutes	minutes since the file was uploaded

Relationships

	$files = $group->files();
	
	$group->addMember($user);
	$group->removeMember($user);
	$group->changeMemberType($user,'manager');
	$membership_type = $group->isMember($user):
		
	$group->addFile($filename,$file);
