Groups With Hidden Membership

Description

Some groups (such as special needs groups) exist where it is necessary for the group's membership to be hidden, even from its members.

The feature request is for a feature to be built in where a group's membership can be set to hidden in the Site Info tool, and for the group's membership to be hidden in all group-aware tools, such as Roster2.

Unlike the comment above, the current default behavior is to not show members of a group to each other. This seems like a safer default.
Resolving as Incorporated.

I put up a patch - this is one way it could be done, using existing options in Sakai.
Essentially, there was a checkbox in Site Info that wasn't being enforced in Site Members.
Also, I switched the default to allow members of the group to see other members of the group so that the default behavior of Site Members, which is to allow students to see the memberships of all groups, would remain the default.
